In the past I could never grow P. gypsicola. But now, in my green house... I guess something is different! Cause it's grown through its 2 phases back and forth... and now in flower! Is it common for the flower to have little to no stalk? It's a 2" x 2" x 2 1/4" pot. Enjoy the pictures
I buy them in super bulk (multi thousands at a time) I think that's the only way to get them.... there are quite a few suppliers online that sell like that. but some of them you've gotta have someone that owns a company order them for you, as they dont' sell direct to the public.

adnedarn,
Very nice.
I just got my plant early August. So far it looks very good with lots of new growth. I'm growing it on the windowsill.
How did you used to try to grow them that failed for you?
I can buy the square poits, but I have to get them by the case of about 900 pots or so. There is a seed place in town. Tricheck and if people want to go in on a case I can get them and divy them out. I would be willing to go in on some square pots. You can also buy them on fleabay, but its pretty pricey and only a couple people sell them.
HELLOOOOOO!!! FLOWERING P. GYPSICOLA!!! lol :- )) If you're looking for little tiny itsy bitsy pots... like the one shown... (2" x 2" x 2 1/4" (tall) ) PM me... Maybe we can work something out... If you want larger than that... I currently dont' have many left- so i'm keepin 'em
Sorry for the hijack! Your plant looks great! congrads on the flowering! I don't know much about these guys so I was not aware it was hard to flower. Very nice I would like to try one one day. Way to grow Andrew.
ok heres a question...are you going to self it and distribute the seed among your fellow growers............................................................................ ............................................................................... first dibs! jk jk

Joseph Clemens, among other things, suggested crushed coral as a growing medium. I mixed that and peat and sand and that seems to have worked. I guess they like an alkaline environment. Here's a couple pics:
Very nice Mine has some of that too... He gave me my first plant, potted ;-) These 4 are just coming out of the little succulent growth. They had been that way a long time, so I started top watering and it only took a few weeks to get to this point.
