Eric J.M. Piens - The Genus Aeonium
Does anyone know anything about this book? It seems to be self published.

Re: Swapping Michael Kießling clones
It would require a little digging to get a real feel for what he used to sell as the stock changed regularly. I’ve been tardy in compiling my list and will try and get on to it now the days are longer.

Re: Germination!
I don’t know where the society sourced the M platyacantha ‘longispinus’ seeds but I’ve just had close to 100% germination which is very unusual.

Re: latest con
I had that one as well but when I clicked on it the Apple email app immediately moved it to the junk folder. I now tend to check the actual email address for any oddly worded message. To be honest this one is new to me and very funny.

Gasteria pollination
Two questions
1. Is Gasteria rawlinsonii self fertile
2. If it is how do I pollinate it.
Thanks

Re: Aloe Erinacea flowering
Wow. How do you get them to keep all the lower leaves? Mine always lose them which results in a stick with a clump of leaves on top!

As far as I can see the days when folk wanted real habitat plants seems long gone in the UK.

Re: It just needed the opposite of TLC
Yes it was all like that. It said Maihueniopsis to me and I was sort of hoping it was one of the more uncommon Chilean ones but happy enough with it as another platyacantha.

It just needed the opposite of TLC
What a difference harsh growing conditions has made to this plant. I bought it because it looked odd and couldnt immediately decide what it was and have now grown it for three years in one of the unheated greenhouses at my allotment. Result is that the new growth is now typical and it reveals itself...
