Another Sang picture

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

This Sang was grown from seeds I received from poppysue.
I took them out from under the lights and put them in the kitchen window where it is cooler.

that's what mine look like.

Mine are just starting to get the maple leaf edge to the leaves. Not as pronounced as this one, but we are getting there. Nice plant Snow.

Yes ... there's what mine look like. I only have 2 that are good size like that. The ones from the sang project are thick and sturdy but seem to be stunted... they're still only a couple inches tall. I'll transplant them today and see if that helps.

Now THAT is a sanguinea. Looking very healthy I might add.

New Iberia, LA(Zone 9a)

That is so great look so healthy, I wish to have one seed.

Milton, FL(Zone 8a)

Yep....that's the leaf mine have.


100 % pure, unmistakable sanguinea-style leaves :)

If you have doubts, if you have a sanguinea, this is anexcellent picture to compare to *lol* However, some seedlings will form the wavy-lobed leaves later, that others :)

What is this with keeping sanguinea's cool? I have grown those sanguinea's in 120 degree green houses. How are you guys going to breed a heat tolerant sanguinea if you don't grow them in the heat?

Mine were in the green house when it got too hot and they survived just fine. There is one that the snails love to eat on, so it's leaves have holes in them. I'm planning on keeping mine in the greenhouse this summer to better control the insects that can spread viruses and see if that helps. Wish me luck!!

Cala,
It is my firm belief that its the heat that makes them more prone to virus's and not the heat in itself that does a sanguinea in. I freely admit though that I have not grown very many and I have killed each and every sanguinea I have ever had. The longest I have had a sanguinea live was for 2 years. It never did bloom; it did set buds though and it did live in a green house for at least part of the summer in our hot florida weather. Perhaps one should baby them more for the first year though...I don't know...perhaps Monika can give some guidance here. If I were growing them and I had enough seed I would simply germinate as many as I could in the green house to start with. Keeping the temperatures between 90-120 degrees the entire time and watering once in the early morning, once in the evening and once any time I saw them wilting. I do think a bit of shade helps with these though when the temps get too high...but as I said...I have killed all of mine. I would love to hear from someone who has actually got these to live for more than 2 years though.

Didn't someone here have one growing in their house? How is that one doing?
