I would love to know if you can get this plant. It can take 10 to 15 years to flower from seed . this is a divison and has got to be root bound to flower,not sure how long that will take.

Don't know how big your xeronema callistemon is now, but if you want more larger plants our local native nusery, Ribbonwood Nursery, Dunedin has some lovely healthy-looking specimens. Love to see one flowering!

My plant is still fairly small . they look like supper plants at your local nursery. I have been letting myself like to many plants that may not take our frosts, as it is, it's going too be hard to winter them over, so I will just stick with this little plant and see how It goes. I think it may be awhile before I see one flowering .
