Chris your plant resembles my Hectia texensis

Hey hotdiggetydam if you have a texiensis that looks like that I would like to trade you something for it. I never seen one with that wide of blades.
Bryan

Both the plants I have are wide leaves...they were wild collcted so maybe they arent ID'd correctly
Anyone have Dyckia Niederleini?

Yes I do have it. Would you like one. I've done a few hybrids with It.
Bryan

Bryan I would like to see a picture of the plant. FCBS doesnt have a photo.
The ID on my plants was made by Harry Luther. One is green with red margins/spines and the large leaf one is silver with maroon margins and spines

This is niederleini,I got it from Gary Galick.

Wow that is a nice spiney. thanks for sharing

hey cactuschris,

are those Welwitschias in the background? - the things with the long strappy leaves? I would love to know what those are.

Mike

Hi Mike - yes - I have a few that I grew from seed - the first of which is trying to produce cones this year. They are a bit slow in the UK climate - especially as I leave the greenhouse doors open all summer.

Hi Chris,

The Welwitschias look great - good growing! Nice collection.

Best,
Mike
