Okay,
Heres what I have right now available for shipping out.
Double oranges, Shredded whites, pink Butterfly aurea's, Pink Aurea's, Tropical Sunset, and a few others....Available as cuttings by the box load, Jamaican suaveolens aka insignis, Insignis Isabella, etc. I am looking for Double pink candida's, Double pink aurea's, Rothkirch, Quinde, L'Amour, and just about any aurea you can name for trades. I may even be talked out of a few Rosabella's. These are for trades only. Please email me with Trade aurea in header or trade double pink in header if interested.
If one is interested, I can graft a few of these come this spring to others, but I really don't want to wait that long. Im an Impatient hybridizer here.

Wish I could help you eric. I think the double pinks will be hard to find - Maybe in the spring they'll be available. I should have Pink Beauty cuttings by then.
Dbl. orange, Rosabella, Whaaaaaaah. Going to go soak my sorrow in another cup of coffee.Have to put on my to do list to find something extraordinary to trade with Eric next year. LOL Hope you get everything that you're looking for. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Eric, you've made so many of us happy with your cuttings, I wish we could wave that magic wand and get these for ya. Maybe just the right person will see this and you'll get something nice for Christmas.
Brugman,
Sorry....no new Aurea Hybrids here.
Ahh, well if worst comes to worse I will simply pot many of these up into 5 gallon pots...actually, many have already been moved into 5 gallon pots recently. Plant them all out in the spring and I will have tons of crosses between my aureas, double oranges, etc. Going to cross Double orange with Culebra very very soon here. Watching the buds explode as we speak.
Glory, as for no new aurea hybrids. With all the aurea hybrids you have sent me and with what I have amassed already, if you need some aurea seed just ask. I have a Butterfly x Pink aurea seedpod almost mature as we speak.

I'd love to help you out Brugmansia - I owe you big time. I've got a couple of these on order for spring but that doesn't help you now does it?
Can you give us some other aurea names?
Brugman: I got some seeds from monika in germany which are b. aurea x b.aurea Rothkirch. You want some. I've planted some up and sent Liz some and have a few left. I also have some aurea x suaveolens blanc from France that just arrived and a few white pearl ( double white) x big another one of Monika's crosses. I don't have a lot but you, as always, are more than welcome to some. Let me know.
Sounds like a wonderful cross Brugcrazy. How many seeds do you have...ahh, you had better keep those for yourself. I hate to grow others seeds unless I can get them in the hundreds as I like to cull while they are still seedlings. I don't have much luck that way, but I do have fun watching the different leaf patterns the different crosses throw out...Still, what aurea was the Rothkirch crossed to...?
I love aurea's Liz, just email me with what you have and chances are it will be fine if its an aurea.

I have some aurea seedlings,one is much larger than the rest,and a different double orange."desiree" don't know if any of them interest you.I think there's a picture on the gommers site.
Brugman: Monika didn't say which aurea she crossed the Rothkirch to so I don't know. That was what was written on the seed package. I have planted half a dozen and have maybe 6 more seeds. You can have them but unfortunately I don't have hundreds. I do have about 20 or so aurea x suaveolens blanc if you like. I have some other aurea x plants like rosabelle but I'm sure you already have that.
Brugcrazzy,
Yes, I do have a few Rosabelle brugs, but that doesn't mean I couldn't deal with more as I intend to use Roseabelle heavily to help make seeds next year. I think I almost weasled another Rosabelle out of one of our other members as well.
The minute it's big enough to take a cutting from it's yours:)
Tig,
Honestly, I don't mind taking your Rosabelle, but I would rather you grow it and hybridize with it first as its your only one and its still small as of now. By the time that one is big enough to trade or give me a cutting I will have more than enough of my own Rosabelle's. Thanks dearly for the offer though as I know how much that one means to you. As it is, I will most likely be supplying the whole group with Butterfly x Rosabell seeds and such next year.
What would be good to hybridize her with besides Butterfly, because if you're going to do that one, I would like to do another. Culebra, Species, HG, Pink Beauty? any of those sound good to you? Hoping to get the Native Habitat catalog today and get us something good for Christmas.
tiG how do you get the Native Habitat catalog? I want one too...
I wrote and asked them for one. They don't answer their email every day, but they told me the other day it's in the mail. I can't wait to see what they have, and their prices.
Thanks Queen! I wrote and asked about it.
Tig,
I personally think crossing her to Hg, Culebra, or Pink Beauty would be wonderful. I think crossing her to a wild yellow or white would be wonderful as well though it may take an extra cross with that last one to get something trully worth while. Still, crossing any pink aurea to a wild yellow or white is good by me as I think too many of the hybridized aurea's are simply too large. Of course crossing her to a Candida species or a knightii would potentially lead to aurea doubles in color, versicolor doubles in color, and candida doubles in color....
Still,
Can't believe anyone has not emailed me with a trade list of any aurea's or double pinks. I would be willing to trade for most any named aurea or double pink. The only aurea's I do not want as I have enough of them-Citronella, Monte Blanche, Butterfly.
