Here's a D. rotundifolia from the Sierras grown by Ivan.

He doesn't like the "chia pet from ####” look of crestate plants. Oh well.

Forbes,

That is kind of cool! Before I saw the comments below the pic, I was thinking, "Isn't that crestate?" lol

Hi Rex,

The D. rotundifolia 'EverGrow' I sent can bloom within 6-9 months of germination in tropical conditions. High temperatures don't seem to be a problem.
 
Forbes,
Are the seeds from the plant you posted

BEAUTIFUL

Thanks, Rex. I'll pass that on to Ivan.

D. rotundifolia 'EverGrow' is a selection made by Ivan Snyder from a hybrid he made between plants taken from California D. rotundifolia populations. I sent you seeds from this selection.

The plant pictured is from a location separate from those used to produce the 'EverGrow' selection (the southernmost D. rotundifolia location, BTW). In cultivation they have an overwhelming tendency to assume a crestate form, and as a result will not bloom.
 
Why does the crestate form make the plant unable to bloom?

GOtta love the spreading and clumping habit it seems to form.
