I am attempting to grow several species of Ramonda, Haberlea, and Conandron from seed. Having achieved decent germination (the plants are a year old now and still very small - haven't pricked out the seedlings), I've been unable to find much cultural info on any of these. I realize our summers will be the biggest liability, so I'm planning pot culture so the plants can be brought inside during the hottest months, but I'm wondering about watering, etc. I also recently obtained 3 mature ramondas and 3 haberleas which I would really like to keep alive. I have killed 2 mature Haberlea rhodopensis previously - nice rosettes when they arrived, but never expanded and eventually just collapsed and rotted. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
