  1. Beautiful as always!


    Just wanted to ask. So many of your plants are flowering regularly. Do you sell seeds?

    1. I do not normally set seed on Conophytums as I find I cannot raise them from seed. I did try on herreathus last Autumn.

    2. I see. But even if you don't sow yourself others might benefit from seeds of your plants. And you also could make a little money. So many flowers go to waste in your collection, it seems, when people are struggling to get seeds.

    3. I am suitably admonished. I have just sown some Lithops seeds I set and hope to get more. I have always produced more Conophytums just by breaking up clumps [I have 5 trays to break up this Autumn ] but there are some I should polinate. I just need to find the time.

    6. I'd be interested in everything and anything. Really. I love all your conos and wouldn't even be able to choose. If you have the chance and time to pollinate your own favorites and would want to share seeds I will greately appreciate it.
