it's true, variegations need more light due to lack of chlorophyll.
Sorry for the loss teo.

Size is a pretty reliable diagnostic feature for these two as well, right?no, leaf size is the same, but the caerulea can have smaller flowers, or flowers just as large as gigantea. gigantea appears to have more petals, but the stamen trick seems to be the most reliable way of distinguishing.
-
tepals add a degree of bitterness but can still be kept in the mix. they dry faster without them. petals, nectar chamber, stamens, basically the rest of the flower is used. cut it up for faster drying. then just add a few (or more) dried bits to red wine.
-
Nymphaea gigantea (Giant Waterlilly) is one native species, v. similar to N. caerulea except that the stamens hang right over the flower centre. N. caerulea stand straight up. You've got N. caerulea there.
I have a small bag of gigantea stamens, appear to be active.

Photos aren't the greatest, even not visible without a third eye enabled, watch out for mind control bodo monkey.

There's a couple more pics up at my gallery. This Erythroxylum used to be included in E. australe, but has much larger leaves, a different distribution and no looping veins on the veins. The tree these photos are from was 3-4 metres tall.

hey dqd,
just thru the shopfront, i should av mentioned that

send me a SSAE and i'll post your some leaves
sorry, not enough material for propagation as of yet.
-
btw i din't have success with the seeds he gave me and i reused the soil for other cacti and had this seedling pop up, that's why i don't know what it is.

This was from some lovely love muncher i guessed was blind, never sure in the end though.....

Welcome!
my chillis ^_^

lol, rub it on the starfish, that's the female part, the stigma.
the fruit took about 6 weeks to mature, it really starts to swell in the last few days. Came out one morning and it had split and dropped off. Be carfeul though cause things will eat it at this stage, there were ants on mine. I had a cage around the whole plant, just cause it's so small.
check out the 'scop pollen wanted' topic in the seed exchange, some good tips in there.
good luck!

One little seedling has 3 cotelydons, hope he's a freak ^_^
-
wau, wot a scoop . nearly lost my lunch to the bodo monkey.
-
if you've had them in there for over 6 days it will be ready, it really gets to a stage where you won't notice that it goes any further, it just sits at it's stinky, brown, sloppy mess stage

Reserpine is in the roots not stem bark.
-
mine are from Richters, they claim that they are viable but who knows. they sell 100g batches too.
-
lol
-
Good viability after 1 week.
-
it was a cutting planted about 5 months before that picture, nearly next to the monky bodo shed of hate.

i'll try some peres grafts when the seedlings look ready. i tried my first graft with one of your icarosDNA seedlings about 2 weeks ago, but it failed. I should have put it in a bag. anyone have good hints for successful pereskiopsis grafting? i started a separate topic in cacti forum to keep updates coming.
hurray, a new baby
