I know this post is an old one, but I've been absent from Terraforums, and missed this. Black Jungle really came through with nice plants. I think the response of the community should be to check out their website. They have a lot of good stuff, and clearly have the right attitude. Hopefully...

I'd be happy to give you a couple kinds, for postage. A friend sent me a ton just before Christmas and I split them up. They've been in the fridge, and have been growing well for others. On the left is Drosera scorpioides (7 gemmae, I think) The right is unclear, but has been tentatively...

These have been growing 3 months now and look great. I don't have a photo of the original plant, but it also looks fine. I forgot to add that I went ahead and removed both basals at about the same time. I don't know which of the original basals these are:

The offer is closed for now.

I still have 2 sets of 7 seeds. The seeds are viable. I dug these up today to check. The 5 seeds were planted on 6/11/2023.

One set is being sent to a friend on a different forum

There is this plant, the hybrid with our native Fremontodendron. I've seen it grow and bloom pretty small in a 1 gallon pot (I bought one small in bloom years ago). It's grown a fair bit, but it's still pretty hard to find. Annie's Annuals has one, but they don't propagate it for some reason...

I found a Chiranthodendron pentadactylon seedpod on the ground while at a meeting of the SF Begonia Society on Wednesday. It was full of viable looking seeds. I got 51 in all. I'm playing with 5 of them here, sending 25 to a friend, and that leaves 21. So I'll send out 3 sets of 7 seeds...

I'm just packing the plant to ship, and I wanted to show how much it has grown over the course of the auction. It's a great plant, I wish Acro the best of luck with it.

I had mentioned elsewhere on Terraforums that people were looking for Passiflora 'Sunburst', which has become strangely unavailable. I just wanted to mention that a member of this forum has apparently found it, so it may be available again at some point. It's a great plant. Small flowers...

Here's what that looks like today: The clearly mature leaf on the right is one of the #2 leaves. So Pittsy wins the contest. Now I just need to propagate B. pteridoides... That's made a lot easier by the fact that I received the replacement plant today, and it's relatively big, and in...

This just shows the progress of my backup plant. The others are a bit behind, I think because they are in lower light levels. So I plan to address that. Note that this is growth over only 5 weeks. The second photo is after exactly 3 weeks, then exactly 2 more weeks after that.
