Re: BCSS Seed List December 2021
Seeds arrived today. Thanks to all concerned.
Received most of the desired ones so very pleased. As they arrived with an avalanche of post having had no deliveries this week I am thinking the covid absences at the local sorting office must be resolving themselves.

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.

Postage delays are all over the place. Karl Rabsilber (Germany) posted a parcel to my son’s house in France on Jan 3rd. Its not arrived yet. But my son is also waiting for a parcel posted in Spain on Dec 27th.
It brings a whole new meaning to snail mail…

Re: BCSS Seed List December 2021
I am still waiting for some seeds from Sweden. Sent late November. I do have given up already. But I could still be surprised. Let's hope it happens not later than early April, right in time for sowing...

Re: BCSS Seed List December 2021
I received my seeds last week, and only got around to planting some a couple of days ago.
An issue I found is that one of the packet I ordered, not sure whether it was Conophytum calculus or Conophytum minutum isn't what it is suppose to be, the seeds were a lot bigger than the usual conophytum size, some have germinated but it had two starting leaves instead of a little conophytum blob.
