Great info Aiko! Just a note about Mesa Garden (which I'm sure goes for others too) is that their delivery speed greatly depends on when in the season you order. If you order in the spring it can take months (at least that was the case before when they published lists). I just sent them an order yesterday and got a notice only an hour ago that the order was being prepared for shipment. So they can be quite speedy too.

Apparently http://www.cactus-zhiv.com/ is not active anymore...
That is quite unfortunate. They had a very interesting list earlier this year.

I agree with the KarlR Mesa comments .... and would add that the package is subject to the whims of the US postal service and the HMRC .... both of whom seem to make it up as they go along.
Hours to get the package under way ..... weeks whilst it went from airport to airport and sat awaiting clearance.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

I talked with Alexand, he told me he will activate the page soon.
Btw Adblps will update the new list around 25November.

Pavel Pavlicek uploaded his 2019 list last night at https://www.cact.cz/.

Good for Echinocereus, Thelocactus, and Stenocactus.

The Mammillaria bertholdii seeds are getting a bit cheaper now, at the looks of it...

I am assuming the UK will not need phytosanitary certificates for import of seeds after Brexit, and trust I am right? I haven't found anything re Cites.

http://kaktusy.webzdarma.cz has been updated a few weeks ago already.
No experience with ordering, but as most Czech seed sellers also an interesting list.
