Hi All,
I'm putting up this list- I'm trying to gauge how to go about doing this: I'm hoping to offer the following to those in the general area where I live, near Philadelphia, PA, or anyone who wants to come here from where ever, as I'm pretty sure some would drive a bit for some of these plants. Basically the deal is, these are all plants that I don't want to ship, as they are either too big/ too rare/ or too heavy. I'd like to trade towards Sarracenia, but what I'm most into is Sarr. purpurea and rosea; I'd like to trade these plants towards Sarr.s w/ locale info., esp. purps. I just wanted to see how feasable this would be/how many people are in my area or would want to come out to this area, and whether a one day open house trade at my house would work, or if it'd have to be on a first come first served individual basis. Also, maybe 'meeting in the middle' might allow more people opportunities to trade. In other words, I need responses to this thread from anyone who'd be interested, so I can get an idea. Anyway, no more talking, this is what I got (I can post pics too-just ask);
All traded by pot, plants are not broken up- I don’t have time to repot, for pickup only, can’t ship
Drosera:
glabripes(old, long stemmed specimen)
regia (in one huge pot, multi crowned, 1 from California Carnivores (could be ‘Big Easy’- not sure, haven’t tried leaf cuttings), 1 seed grown from wild seed from Bainskloof, many pups- overall approx. 10+ growth points- 11 years old, windowsill)
cuneifolia (about 5 plants in pot)
slackii (1 plant in pot)
aliciae (wild seed from Cape Town, spectacular clone, 1st place at Philly Flower Show)
hilaris (4-6 pots of, from seed collected above Durban Gardens, RSA- mature size)
cistiflora (4 growths in one pot, purple flower)
sp ‘silverhill seeds’ ‘cape town rosette’(3 pots, each crammed full of sundew)
Brocchinia reducta- densely-crowned (8+ growths) huge pot, flowering plant
Pinguicula:
cyclosecta X 2 (2 plants per pot)
sp. ‘Huahuapan’
macrophylla X 2 (2 plants per pot)
sp. ‘Lautner 92/52’
rectifolia
‘Pirouette’ X 2
agnata ‘red leaf’
rotundiflora
gracilis
esseriana (3-4 plants in pot)
gigantea x moctezumae
moranensis ‘fraser beaut’
laueana (2 plants in pot)
moranensis var. orchioides
sp. ‘Koehres’
Heliamphora nutans- 9 time 1st. place winner in the Philly Flower Show- nearly got best in show rosette- spectacular- don’t know why I’m selling- has approx. 3 mature divisions in 1 big live sphag. pot, and two seedlings-have owned since 2000- presently has maturing seed pods, and one crown is dividing to two- the pride of my collection for sure!
Nepenthes:
clipeata- the real deal, from Wistuba, mature, near flowering, with a large basal growth as well. Pitchers near 8-10” tall- must be a good deal for this one!
rajah- BE clone 2- have owned it since 2001, when it was ½” wide- now approx. 12” wide, with nice pitchers coming
lavicola- approx. 2 foot vine, mature, don’t know sex yet, large basal offset
N. ovata- from Exotica Plants, about 7 years ago; a top cutting, with a basal node- exceptional clone, lower pitchers are as black as a ramispina pitcher, and robust-my last and only cutting from original large vine
Many Nep. seedlings, though not sure if I want to release any just yet:
Nep. macfarlanei ‘Mt. Ulu Kali,Genting Highlands, Malaysia’- 2 ½ years from seed, approx. 3” wide, very colorful pitchers
Nep. ventricosa ‘Red’ x Mira- 1 ½ years from seed, approx. 4” wide
N. ventricosa ‘Red Giant’ x ventricosa ‘Black Peristome’- 1 year old from seed, 4” inches wide already!
Stylidium:
debilies- new species, multiple growths, one clone, from Queensland, Aus.
May be some other carnivores (Sarracenia?), if I can be convinced …
Non carnivores:
Cycad; Encephalartos macrostrobilus (magnificent young, caudex plant)
Orchids: Bucket orchids,etc; Stanhopea xytriophora, Coryanthes bruckmuelleri, Cory. macrantha, Gongora sp. ‘1202’(undescribed); SPECIMEN; Gongora chocoensis (Spectacular clone and specimen- HUGE!)
In production:
Nep. mira xx Briggsiana ‘Hortus Botanicus clone’
N. aristolochioides x diatas ‘meadow form’
N. aristolochioides x (ventricosa x talangensis)- seedlings, should look very much like an aristo, but one that can grow on your windowsill, and withstand neglect, with hardiness like ventricosa
N. aristolochioides x tentaculata ‘Mt. Kinabalu form’
N. mira seedlings
Anyway, that's the list. Tell me what you think, thanks all, Nick Haywood 'bluesboy'
