| Yep your a big tease when you start posting these LOL |
|
| I was planning on going to the conference for the plant sale. I was hoping to be able to get some of the Baker hybrids but a member that will be selling there told me there won't be any for sale. I have never been to the conference plant sale, do you think he is correct? If I knew there would be some for sale I would definitely go. Your Dyckias look absolutely beautiful! paul in AR |
|
| There should be a lot of dyckias. Tropiflora, Michaels, and the member sales should be a lot of dyckias. I do have some of bakers hybrids don't know how many will be ready for the conference but it should be good |
|
| I have tried all the on-line nurseries such as those you mention but neither is selling any of the named Baker hybrids. I would really like to find some of those. |
|
| which ones are you looking for? |
|
| Any of the named one's such as Keswick, Tarzan, Bill paylen, Brittlestar original, etc. |

| Good luck on that search Paul..there are several of us that are hunting those plants..in vain I fear.. |
|
| The onlyone I don't have is Tarzan |
|
| Yes, I realize there are a lot of folks looking for Baker hybrids. My only hope is that someone may want to trade. Mid to late summer I am hoping my seedlings will be large enough to start selling but it may be longer. I have dozens of rare Dyckia species that have not been seen in the US. |
|
| I do alot of trading its the best way to add to your collection. Let me know when you are ready |
|
| If you email me at paroan2001@yahoo.com with your email address I will contact you when they are ready. |

| Some of my best plants I got in trades |
|
| Really stunning! Bryan, hope we can trade too. I've done some nice hybrids here. |
|
| Hello Bryan and all, Your plant is a real stunner. I have Brittle Star F2 got from Michael looks different from you. I think there is so many clone of it in trade. Brittle Star original clone is one of my wish list that is very very difficult to get. I spend many month searching for this plant but that's failed. I get in to Dyckia for a few year. There is a few plant offer in trade esp.Bill Baker's plants are the most difficult to get. I'm looking for source of Dyckia in USA only Michael and Tropiflora offer a few. I got some hybrids from my friend in AU. They all are nice. I'm willing to trade plants with other plants to share. Cheers |
