Any ideas?

Post by ianstrutt »

Hi all, I picked this up from the Sheffield branch show at the weekend as I’d never seen anything like it before. Alas, there’s no label. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
Ian

Growing in Nottingham for the past 4 years and recently found my way to a Nottingham branch meeting. A few plants on a windowsill has very quickly turned into a greenhouse full!

Attempting to grow a range of turbinicarpus, coryphantha, escobaria and several other cactus genera. Tylecodons, pelargoniums and conophytums keep me occupied in the winter and an ever expanding number of gasteria live under the bench.

Tradescantia navicularis, I think.

Callisia navicularis is a more up-to-date name.
