Fractalhead Posted October 27, 2001 Hi from Cairns everyone, I've finally gotten around to making a rough Haves/Wants list. We are super keen to increase the diversity of our garden, so if any of you have something on our Wants list, please don't hesitate to email us, even if we don't have what you want written on our Haves list because we might be able to work something out anyway. We've got quite a few interesting things that aren't on our Haves list because we haven't identified them to species yet. Also, if you need small quantities of a big range of herbs/veges etc, then it might save you some money to grab a few seeds from each of our packs (you know how they charge you 2 or 3 bucks a pack for WAY too many seeds). We've spent heaps on seeds and they just sit there waiting for someone to grown them. Most of our commonish seeds aren't on the list. Also, if you like collecting Ipomoeas, there are tonnes growing wild around here. I just found a Convolvulaceous vine that looks something like a cross between an Ipomoea and an Argyreia. I'll post pics soon. Anyway... the list... | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | **Haves** ====Cacti (Plants) 9 Lophophora williamsii (5 yr old seed grown) 4 Trichocereus pachanoi (4" x 1 ft) 2 T. scopulicolus (4" x 1 ft) 1 T. bridgesii (1 ft high, many branches) 1 Cereus peruvianus 1 Mammillaria schiedweileriana 1 Chiapsis sp. 1 Gymnocalycium damsii plus some other Cereus that we haven't identified yet Cacti (Seeds) Lophophora williamsii Other Plants (Plants) Galbulimima belgraveana (30m high tree) Areca catechu (6m high) Alstonia scholaris (15-20m high) Datura metel Brugmansia candida (peach) B. candida (white) 4 Salvia divinorum (young cutting grown) Desmanthus illinoensis (many young seedlings) Psychotria carthaginensis 10 + Argyreia nervosa (2-3m+ average) Artemesia vulgaris Artemesia absinthum Wild bergamot Peganum harmala (young seedlings) Lotsa gotu kola Granadilla Yellow passionfruit Coffee Pea-tree Sweet leaf Various chilis Various tomatoes Heaps of veges Aristolochia tagale (Attracts giant Cairns birdwing butterfly) Euodia sp.

Fractalhead Posted October 29, 2001 Yeah... that means we have some Syrian Rue seeds but we want more if possible. Thanks waterdragon. That'd be great. [This message has been edited by Fractalhead (edited 29 October 2001).] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
