G'day Sally and David
If you could send a splash of your Maryland luck my way Sally, it sure would be appreciated
David, the society was indeed Australian and unfortunately like a lot of garden clubs, members are getting on in age and younger people have other things on their minds.This particular society was interested in hoyas as well as epiphyllums.
Of my 86 cuttings, I think only one has carked it, there was another looking poorly so I cut it about an inch above the soil, then cut the top bit in half, dipped it in metho and replanted.
I only had 2 flowering size plants that had been neglected, but had crossed them 5 years ago and eventually harvested one small seed pod.Two seedlings germinated which I have in small hanging pots, but they are taking their time in growing.I'll find their pics and post them later.In the mean time, here are the parents..the pink is very nice, the red not so nice, but the snails thought they were both very nice .
