Hello! I am so sorry for the late reply, I got lost in a black hole of uni assessments Boll; I still have it if you're still interested, PM me groovedude; I also have a few offshoots that I may be able to repot soon, it seems to thrive quite well in Brisbane

Oops, for some reason the pic uploaded is horizontal, apologies for that!

Hello, I have a Piper Auritum that has gotten waay too big for me to continue to harbour as I already have the mother plant Beautiful scent and has been flowering nicely Way too big to post so wondering if anyone from bris might be interested in a trade

Just letting anyone know who may still be interested that 3, 7 and 9 are all in new homes Am going to put them in their final resting place soon as they are in tubestock pots at the moment, so PM me if anyone else takes fancy in any of the remaining ones

Ooo I like photos that show progressions...I will have to check your posts out! Happy mandraking!

Hi SagiX I am super pleased my mandrake caring capabilities make you glad! The seeds you sent have brought me great joy! Yes I plan to do my best not to poke and prod them for the next few seasons, I am a touch like a small child with these guys! I just have to see what they are doing - when I see they are growing bigger I get super excited, tis quite sad I will definitely have to try the cactus tip - the photos on your thread of the fruit are just exquisite with their little veins like yellow and green rivers...super cool looking Yes I took them out for a photo but now they are in little pots until the trade is over and then I will carefully put them into bigger permanent homes I was unsure of how to post them so I just put them in a little bit of dirt, wrapped in brown paper then a bit of bubble wrap...probably overkill but I didn't want anyone to receive a mushed or dead one :/

Yay I will endeavour to make sure I can come along

Hey! I am pretty shy when meeting new people and pretty damn socially awkward in new situations What are these meets like? Postage is way too expensive these days and i have a few plants that need new homes Are you all friendly (i may or may not be )? I am trying to improve on my "avoid new situations" issue and i would love to meet some plant people and yes i have a giant piper auritum that needs to go somewhere!

They are awesome plants! Yes you don't see too many about nice to meet another mandrake enthusiast...the history and folklore surrounding them is just incredible!

Just letting anyone who still may be interested that Number 3 has also gone

Ok number 7 has gone Still waiting on selection from other members

Yay! Replies Endotheogen; you can have the giveaway , I will reply to your PM od101010; I had a go at some cactus seeds, they are sooo cute when they are little , I will PM you Matt1208; from memory I think we have had a few chats and you also were a recipient of my crafty stuffs (which I am getting back into, however this time will bake for longer and package better to ensure to breakages; it breaks my heart when my crafts don't arrive safely, I likely rushed things a little too much back then...but I will not make the same mistake again)...It was awhile ago so I will track back through my PMs and try to remember which great conversationalist you were thank you all for the replies I will get onto this further this arvo, am just about to pack up camp and head to the pub so I don't boil to death in this heat I think there should still be 2 left for rehoming, I will post again once you three have selected which one

Hello Finally gotten my computer to play nicely (after 4 hours of cursing and finally resetting then reinstalling windows - good god I hate technology sometimes)... Which means I can get around to finally posting about my little Mandrakes that have finally gone dormant for the year (Thank you SagiXSagi for the seeds ..they are amongst my top prized plants that make me so happy It has taken me ages to decide which & how many to keep... But have decided to part with 5 out of 10. Also, after recently realising over the last few weeks, just how much I treasure my membership on these fantastic forums which give me a break from the drain of reality and constant life stressors, as well as the immense appreciation I have for the conversations I have with some of the members, I have decided to giveaway one and hopefully trade the rest, if anyone is interested, so as to increase the awesome collection within the sacred space that soothes my soul that is my garden They are Mandragora Autumnalis, and I am pretty sure I cannot post them to WA/TAS. I will investigate the best way to get them to anyone who may be interested, if anyone shows interest They are on their 2nd year (I am still a novice gardener, so I am unsure if they are developing at the rate they should be, but I have repotted a couple of times, just to be sure they are still there (which I plan not to do anymore, as I know it stunts their growth...it is so hard to resist!) I plan on keeping 1,2,5,9 & 10....I figured I would see if anyone would be interested in trading something small in return (just so I can keep my gardening diverse and interesting!) However the first one I will give away, to the first person to show interest I guess (Would rather save the larger ones for trade, so first posters pick from 3,6 or 7 ) Anyway, let me know if you're interested & hope everyone is having a nice Saturday night/Sunday morn

This is lovely I like ideas like this - they make me think the world isnt totally full of self-interested people It is a shame the seeds I have stashed are pretty average! Hopefully my computer will play nice tonight and let me post some of the stuff i have gathered after some much needed garden love... i decided after much thought (and decision making difficulties regarding which to let go of...i get pretty sentimental and precious with the plants i grow, sad i know! ... i felt terrible making cuttings of my kava!)... that most i will trade/giveaway... I do love this place and have enjoyed the majority of interactions i have had on here and people i have chatted with over the last 3-4 years so definitely want to be part of the sharing and caring thing - theres not enough of that in this world Anyway, ranting again sorry!. But yep, its refreshing to see some kindness and sharing in this crappy world

On a side note Mr thunderhorse - if you are keen for some boredom viewing; my crafts once had its own .com.au domain, registered business name, market stall and abn; but as we discussed years ago - divorces and separations get damn depressing so all I have left is the trickles of historical artefacts on my facebook page http://www.facebook.com/spookysunshine and I recently started a bit of a gardening page to keep me occupied and less focused on the frustrating stuff https://www.facebook.com/Miss-Meander-878548042298337/ hopefully the links work I am just a woman of too many hobbies who ruminates far too deeply on the depressing but is adept at cheering myself up But yeah, I have been on a social media warpath with a very unscrupulous seeming staff member....its' been highly interesting, but mate it is tiring ! especially when many seem to think all I have done is go nuts lol (nah I was already nuts, I am just a woman who is far too intellectually inclined to allow pure psuedoscientific fabrications slide

Last but not least for the night before I get further distracted by my unfathomably frisky overactive juvenile rat and this STUPID DAMN UNI BULLSHIT THAT IS LIKE SOME MAGICAL MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARING INBOX?! The piper auritum that has grown waaay too big

Oh no Mr horsey! I could not charge you for any more than postage yes i probably rushed it a little as uni was getting stressful but I have practically been booted from that near finished degree (I got great marks too so that sucks aye)! Your posts and our long little talks always made me smile - and fuck knows I need all the smiles I can muster these days, shit has been really tough over this end (I think people make too many judgements without assessing behind the scenes, I am constantly doing soo many things at once! It is super tiring...and my uni is performing a massive pseudoscientific cover-up that i got myself stuck in the middle of)... But I am more thinking, asides from the mimosa I will likely just see if I can trade them, my garden was once my oasis, now it kinda depresses me lol.... You too sir! keep up the sunshine and rainbows and good work - you have been a pleasure to know
