$66

half that is reasonable but still high

are we talking V africana or V thouarsii

the latter i have source for the former yeah but no commitment

Edit:

MG sucks

well you can expect alot more apocynaceae from me if i get my greenhouse...

My T orientalis wil prob flower next summer . they overwinter easily indoors in cooler climates.

has anyone ever seen T divaricata seed?

Ive seen T australis seed but never bothered because of my lack of facilities

I'd add Ochrosia and Randia species to those native lists

if only for the perfume and the beautful butterflies they host

our voacanga africana are fruiting for the first time, so hopefully we will have plants for sale in a few months.

am interested in trading V.thouarsii if anyone has them. we'll probably sell plants at $35 for the first year and $25 in second year if seed production keeps up.

$35 sounds fine by me

well, first year they will probably be a bit wimpy still. but there should be plenty of seed to establish some larger plants. you know that we have 140mm pots of almost all plants we mail out, but we don't send them due to shipping costs.
