I sent off a bunch of cuttings to a nursery of P. karwinskii and P. porphyretica var. angustata along with a bunch of rooted cuttings of a good friend's hybrid. It feels good to share when I have plants that I'm able to cut or need to cut. I also started some cuttings of P. cirrhiflora again. The last ones didn't take, and the ones that I sent to another nursery also didn't survive. My parent plant is going strong inside the green house, so as long as it survives the winter in there, I guess it doesn't matter if these cuttings take. Although, I'd feel much better if they did. I have P. pyrrhantha and P. macrophylla in one gallon pots flying in from across the country this week. These are two really hard to find Astrophea that are extraordinary for their red flower and giant leaves respectively. I hope they arrive in tact. I also recently acquired P. 'Ex Menton', and it's doing fine outside right now. The leaves look a little off, but I'll reserve judgement until it blooms. And last, my new hybrid has buds on it. I'll have to keep an eye out for Tacsonia flowers that I don't recognize. I already have a name picked out if it's a winner. Even though my collection is mostly young plants there have been some neat acquisitions this season. If all survives the mild winters here in Redondo Beach, it should be a very fun 2015 summer!
