I have been rooting leaves for a long time, and now I have several which have produced enough plants for me to trade. Here in Virginia the weather is moderating this week; I would feel safe mailing to other places which have moderating weather.
Al's Pals- double blue
Bethane- blue with darker veins
Popsicle- large deep pink
Pat's Pet Apollo
Cherry Pie
Blue Mars
Falling Stars
Matthew
I have many other varieties which are independent of the mother leaf, but not big enough to trade. I am looking for pinks, reds, very dark blues, very dark maroons, doubles, very large blooms; it seems that I have accumulated lots and lots of blues already. I would consider trading one plant for several different leaves.
HAVE STREPTOCARPUS VARIETIES
Wish I had some to trade, I'm waiting for it to get a bit warmer to order my first strep from violet barn.
I don't have any Strep's either. I ordered my very first one along with a couple of Chirita's from Rob's a few months ago. The Chirita's were great, but the Strep was one little teeny leaf and it died pretty soon after getting it. I may at some time try another, larger plant ... but for now am sticking to African Violets and the couple of Chirita's I have!
I'm sure folks will see your post soon Gloriag and be beating down your door to trade!
are you looking for anything other than Streps or AVs? I am interested in Falling Stars. (and I may be in Richmond this weekend for the orchid show)
Streptocarpus Cherry Pie was my first years ago. I gave them all away.
Sent a big in bloom Falling Stars to her too !
Now I want Cherry Pie again so much !
Cherry Pie blooms
Glory you have Dmail
What a Beauty! Sure makes me want to try one .... THAT Cherry Pie one! Love It!
I can take AVs in exchange also. I have more of some strep varieties than of others.
I don't want to make too many trades because of the postage expenses.
