Nice "Made in Thailand" nep hybrids, are you one of the proud creator, Shawn??

[shawnintland]

Well, these are mostly made by others (about 2 years ago) and then sent to me to germinate and grow out. My latest batches (lots of 'em!) are just germinating now (and appearing in a mailbox and seedbank near YOU soon!)

fantastic Shawn..keep 'em comin!!

wow Shawn ... very nice plants! Most I like the 'Tiger' x raff 'Alata'. Did the wings of the raff 'Alata' came through for other seedlings?

oh...they are so beautiful shawn! can wait for 'it' to come through the mailbox...ha ha ha. btw, i was wondering if are those coral bits or limestones in your potting media? if not, what are those and what is the contribution to the potting media/plant....opps so many questions, hope you don't mind...

[NepNut]

I think those are pumice, light weight material almost like perlite but cheaper... it's widely available in Thailand but seems hard to find in Malaysia.

[kevyn chan]

googled thru and wonder if pumice is inert or....?

[NepNut]

yes, it's inert just like perlite

[kevyn chan]

if we do acid test on them, perlite and pumice...will they dissolves like limestone?? confuse....
