Ok... glad you are getting them.. and thanks to the ones who have paid already...postage and generous per cutting reimbursements from a few.... others sending a flat $2.. thanks..
I did haveabout 8 - 10 large trees... that I had no room for inside or the cool room... so I gave them to a nursery owner... to mae cuttings.. and to get them going in his shop with lights.. or stored in his temporary plastic greenhouse...he's a real piece of work...he had a bent metal greenhouse... with maybe 8 ft headroom... he mounted these bent metal supports on top of a 14' wall... made out of 2 X 10's...so now he had a greenhouse with a 22' ceiling for his 20' bird of paradise.. and his other tropicals... then other plants in three layers inside.. on shelving [ floors ] held up by the supportsof the 2 X 10's with 2 x floors for the big planters..
SO as I was passing these down to his guys... I see one is in flower... Adouble.. I had never seen flower before.. a seedling cross of RubriRosa X Vixen... then on looking at the flower.. I see a third skirt..already plasstered back aganst the outside of the flower... so perhaps a triple... Yes.. I took a big cutting of it for myself....
