I have recently purchased over $US200 of seeds from this Dutch vendor, CactusPlaza, owned by Allard Bax. He advertises that his seed has good viability, 80% is what he claims. BEWARE! Out of a hundred Pachypodium seeds of several different species, only 7 viable seedlings emerged. On Fockea edulis, there was zero germination. I have ordered seed from all over the world and haven't had such poor germination with seeds from most other vendors. I also bought Pseudolithos migiurtinus seeds from him and the germination on most of them was pretty poor. And his stuff is pretty expensive
When I asked him for an adjustment because of poor germination, he never replied to my request, even though it's now been over 3 weeks since I contacted him.
I would not recommend this vendor for seeds. I have bought seeds from Mesa Garden in NM and have had much better results.
Just wanted people to know.
Thanks
