focus Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) I have a 5 year old or so psychotria in my backyard in Perth and am about to move. Does anyone want to come and get it? Not sure if it is any good to transplant.. It has been in a tropical-ish garden under shade.. Edited October 14, 2011 by focus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foo Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Mate i would love it!!! Depending on the size, transplant shouldnt be too hard. Edited October 14, 2011 by eatfoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uda Posted October 14, 2011 Ah bugger, would have raced there right now for it! Amazing offer focus. :D Wouldn't mind cloning a leaf if possible? New genetic stock always welcome in my garden. What species is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foo Posted October 14, 2011 Yeh Uda, if it works out i would gladdly pass you along a cutting. Good chance im closer to your work then you are to said plant (+i owe you) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
focus Posted October 14, 2011 eatfoo was quick on the Pm so I'm going to leave it up to him... i bought it from Torsten years ago... pretty sure it was a P. Viridis. I should post a photo to make sure it is actually a psychotria as it was planted ages ago and I have never done anything with it. Hopefully the mrs or the dog haven't pulled it out! So maybe don't get too excited just yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkSpark Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) I imagine transplant with abit of pruning would do fine, given they grow from leaf cuttings as long as you get some roots with it should survive easy as ! edit: anyone looking to do leaf propagation i have heaps of alba, carth and viridis branches that could use a prune Edited October 14, 2011 by DarkSpark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
