 Every time the AGS planned a trip to Patagonia, it was sold out
before I could sign up, so it is wonderful to see the pictures.

Chileflora has seeds for sale of a number of the plants shown,
including Quinchamalium chilense, which I had never heard of.

What's not to love about Patagonia? Those violas are amazing. Much thanks for yet another extraordinary travelogue.

a set with the bright, white Calandrinia affinis

Is Calandrinia affinis in cultivation anywhere? Some years ago I tried to germinate a large amount of seeds without receiving a single plant.
