I am looking for info on how to grow Schlumbergera from seeds. It looks like I will have seeds from my attempts to pollinate some of mine. I would greatly appreciate any info that y'all could suggest.
Thank you

Gosh, good luck, I'm sure someone will have some good advice for you.

Sure you don't want to just propagate a few of the segments? Might be a big faster ... ?

I have plenty of cuttings started but I would like to try seeds. I have epiphyllums seedling that I started.

G'Day
Wren 107 did you see the posting on the other site re minimum temps?
I would never have thought of that since our day temps are plenty high enough, I have raised lots of seedlings of various Genera without trouble. But another plant from another country with particular requirements.
Good luck with your seeds and with the grafting if you follow it through.
