Berengar Posted May 16, 2015 Hey guys, I have a very nice and fat globular Echinopsis hybrid which has several flower buds, and my Echinopsis fallax (yellow flowered) looks like it will be pushing them out soon, and I would like to make a few crosses, preferably with something more columnar. Anything from spachianus and grandiflorus to pachanoi or terscheckii, but even any other Echinopsis would be great. Buds are still small, probably a couple weeks from opening. I have various very hot pepper seeds for trade, or small amounts of several Trich hybrids. I'm in the EU btw. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berengar Posted May 16, 2015 Some pics of the plants. It goes without saying I would share the seeds with anyone interested. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zelly Posted May 23, 2015 I've various echinopsis, grandiflorus & arboricola pollen I could send you, but experience is proving the shipping time & conditions is a main killer of pollen....how receptive would you or the country you live in be to a smallish grandiflorus or echinopsis plant with a bud forming one it? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master B Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Hey mate Can i ask which country your presiding in? I have some desiccated frozen scop pollen from January if your keen... But if your not in oz i doubt it will make it. Cheers b Edited May 23, 2015 by Master B 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berengar Posted May 23, 2015 Thanks very much guys. I wasn't aware that pollen doesn't fare very well in transit. I'll try to source it closer to home then. Btw, fallax is definitely forming buds now! If nothing else I'll try to cross these two. Thanks very much for the offer zelly, but I'm not sure if the customs would allow live plants into the country, it's about 50/50, and I'd be sad to loose a nice plant to them.
