These are times when I wished I had a garden.

Great plants and cool seedlings, Shawn. Hopefully, they will grown up and do exceedingly well for you.

Thanks! Hee, hee, hee, David. That's just two of the trays...there's at least 12 more just in the two hydro-tables! Thanks to all of you who sent me seeds! I spent the weekend transplanting those Tiger x raff alatas, the coccinea x amp spotteds and some of the vikings. I was feeling really good about getting so much done...until I realized that was about 1/15 of the job! I'm planning on using a lot of them in landscaping jobs for two of my clients, (one will be the 'living wall' job) but there will still be plenty for trades and kick backs to the seed suppliers!
By the way, one of the resident experts on the Thai Nep forums has informed me he is sure that what I called N. tricho x kuchinensis is really N. trichocarpa only. I'm still unsure, as I bought them a few years ago from the propagator himself, who labeled them as I wrote it and I also bought straight N. trichocarpa (labeled as such) at the same time. Must admit though, I can't see much difference between them except that the labeled 'cross' plants seem to make a lot more lower rosette pitchers.

Hi fellow members

Thats a lot and lot of seedlings u have there and i dont even know how to propagate through seed (shame on me).I dunno why but i have trouble with hookeriana every pitcher it comes out the older 1 dies and it has a carpet of tiny pitchers and my miranda has only gain a pitcher size of 25cm i think it can go much more than that still a long way before any of my plants flower except my ventrata

Ken
