Happy Cadaver

Rev's had these icaros seedsfor ages and was supposed to have seedlings due out soon. Cute seedlings Shouldn't you be calling the TBM's now ELM's according to your taxonomy update (Echinopsis lageniformis monstrose)?

it's always worth testing a few plants

some healthy splendens

wau, what a scoop

Evidently he's been into the Datura and is still stark raving fucking mad These specials won't last long, i guarantee at the prices he's put on them

exactly. until it is proven and shown with photos etc, these myths aren't worth much. I'm just waiting for more chances to prove these myths wrong thanks. man do those armpits smell like bodo on a hot cogan day

it's hard to believe that a species that goes to the effort of producing such a medium sized seed full of goodies has such a short viability. Probably a comment made by growers wanting to keep it in the country. Anyone wanting to import seeds of brazillian climbers should be aware of any weed potential, in an ethical sense. It's worth looking into if you beleive in it.

how's that material going Apothecary? Tried it yet?

What became of Strangebrew? good luck with those exams teo

thanks. man do those armpits smell like bodo on a hot cogan day

wau, what the hell happened to the bodo monkey on the back of the glasses wearing weak-as-piss-man?

thanks. man do those armpits smell like bodo on a hot cogan day

Check out the habit of D. inoxia versus D. wrightii, inoxia is much more upright with pure white flowers and wrightii is semiprostrate with the lavender tones u described, i think the pod shape maybe different too but haven't checked. They certainly are a great ornamental

it's actually a perfect example if you think about it. It was an unpopular move to separate them but has been supported by scientific data more recently. The Trich thing is unpopular too but if it is supported then i can't see a reason not to rename stock. Some people still cling to the Datura thing, Dature arborea, etc. when it is clearly outdated. People who have studied science in one form or another are quite open to discussion on such topics, there's no problem there. Now you've seen the light you can move on to Argyreia and Silene ^_^

Until there is some authoratative chemotaxonomic/genetic testing to see the relationships between this large genus, its jumping the gun to relabel. After all, even taxonomists have to justify their jobs and funding, what better way than to mix things up now and then pull them apart later Perhaps we should be calling our Brugmansias, Datura again They pulled Brugmansia out of Datura because of obvious morphological differences, yet put Trichocereus into a genus with radically different morphological characteristics in spite of the differences. I haven't been bothered to read why they changed it about mostly because it would put me to sleep, but will accept it when they provide clear evidence (if they haven't already).

good one the mystery one could be a Tephrocactus like EG said, i picked up a cutting exactly the same up here, all the spines/glochids caught in my fingers, it's a bastard but a good cactus sentry for your garden.

D. leichardtii has small flowers which don't open fully, so it's not that.

Hi Andrew, D. meteloides is a synonym of D. inoxia, check out this

Datura inoxia

shit, wat a scoop of proportions, beware the bodo monkey with gout.

I've been doing a bit of crossing, trying to get some new shapes happening with some rare chillis and some of the normal cultivars and varieties. I did a cross between a C. chinense (martinique Habanero) and C. annuum (Hidalgo) last year, F1 are now fruiting and are basically a mix of the two, sort of like a bullet shape, with slightly less heat than a hab, but the colour change of the hab which looks great. their also pretty tall and nothing eats them which is to be expected of a hybrid. My question is: what is the best way to stabilse traits from the next generation? simply breeding a couple which i like together, or back crossing to the hab? My next one is a jalapenoXpoblano. Anyone with experience creating new chillis? Auxin?

Thanks Auxin I've seen a rough guide to which species cross but that matrix is good. I remember seeing a webpage where a guy crossed galapagoense with pubescens, but the matrix says no. Will post some pics of the crosses i'm doing soon.

probably A. pontica, but that's a shit photo. get a close up of the leaves. what's it smell like?

new directions they sell a range of cool bottles

it's fucken mad. be careful. i reckon it should only be used in meals, ie. not as a condiment. chilli willies do good sauces, aussie backburn is my favourite and has poppy seeds included
