None of them have names. We still have ONE local nursery here that is worth a darn... down from 3...when I was a licensed nurserywoman I grew ornamental bananas, taccas, plumerias and different alocasias to sell them wholesale for resale...long days ago. But they still have people like me who are hobbyists who have nursery licenses who grow stuff for them, usually succulents, african violets, hoyas, orchids and epiphytic cacti. Episica is one the the plants that has a 'local contributor' who sells them her propagated plants. If they have names, I didn't preserve them. They do really well in my greenhouse, they can get a little heat stressed in the dog days of summer and demand a little more water then. They have soil beds that were specially amended for them using peat, vermiculite, sand and aliflor.
