Shortia seeds

[fleurbleue]

No Shortia seeds on the seedexchange list  and I have not found them to buy from nurseries. Can somebody help me ?  Thanks in advance for your advices

Nicole,

if you become a member of the Göteborg Connoisseur Club (you can join for free) of the Göteborg botanical Garden you'll receive their seed-catalogue every year. There is always seed of three or four Shortia/Schizocodon species available from that list.

See link: http://www.gotbot.se/kulturvast_templates/Kultur_XForm.aspx?id=51524

Here below a picture of my seedlings from last spring (sown in February 2010).


Also, Ian Christie sells them sometimes: http://www.alpine-plants.co.uk/

Nicole - I have some soldanelloides I collected for a forumist 14 days ago. Also some mis-placed uniflora seed from the summer, they may be too old. Send me your address via a pm.

The Göteborg list just arrived and has no Shortia seeds this year.

They do have Schizocodon.
