I am looking for anyone that could possibly provide me with rooted cuttings, or just cuttings, of namchabarwensis. I have tried numerous times over the last year to germinate seeds that many people have been VERY KIND to share, but I am a seedidiot, never have much luck with any except those that are native. I really wanted to have them around for a wedding next year and have been trying to get an early start with the germination, but to no avail...I was thinking I shouldn't have any problem rooting my own cuttings if I could find anyone willing to share a small piece of their plant with me, as my success rate in this is much greater than with seeds;)
Happy to trade for ANYTHING i have, including rooted Epiphyllum plants, hoya plants, plumeria, voodoo lily, HUGE amaryllis bulbs (I have a bunch!), clivias (yellows &or orange yellows), dischidia, pithos and other things...if you think you could possibly help me out and aren't interested in anthing here, let me know what your looking for, I have access to some more unique plants.
Also happy to sase or pay if anyone could possibly refer me to someone selling these impatiens. I know someone sold them on ebay last year, but not sure who and haven't seen anything recently.
Less than a year until the big day I really feel like I should get going to have a bunch in time;)
PS - happy to share all my leftover rooted cuttings after the wedding with anyone interested!
Thanks for any help

this is one of my favorite plant sites (wish she had my plant!)
My Goodness that is pretty. Thanks for sending the picture. Wish I had one too...Fran
You will be disappointed if you expect the blooms to look like that. They don't. Several of us got seeds a year ago from England and grew them out, the blooms are decidedly more purple than they are blue. Here is an UNENHANCED picture of the bloom.

wow you certainly are right, its amazing what photoshop does these days....well there go my dreams of blue, but still certainly very pretty;)
I did collect seeds, so if anyone wants to give them a try, I have them .It is pretty, but it certainly is not the peacock blue in the pictures.

I would like to try to grow this if you have a few extra seeds.
Thanks
I would like to try a few also, if you have any left.
Thanks, Lucy
