I don't think it is possible to do such a thing since most of the Onco. around this area are very variable in color, size and shape of leaves.In many cases if you will have a cut flower out of its native habitat, no one will be able to say for sure which species it is.This genus is still evolving and many forms and some species haven't stabled yet to form a definitive 'type'.
Second: Thank you Pat, I will try to paint any onco, specially any Syrian or Israelian one if any kind friend send me a picture...
Yes Pat, but as it's very hot now in France, they will grow fastly and the other problem is that I won't be able to manage all the pollinations by myself, resulting in inter specifics crossings...As I don't want them, I'll sent you the seeds if I have and you want
Thanks Fred and I don't mind sharing at all with you Jamie. :)So glad to know some of the seed are germinating for you Jamie. What more do you need in life than to see rare and interesting seed germinating?...... don't answer that I know there is plenty more to survive and prosper but.......

What more do you need in life than to see rare and interesting seed germinating?...... don't answer that I know there is plenty more to survive and prosper but....... Pat,a small confesion. Today, it is sunny, warm and an ever so gentle breeze keeps refilling my lungs with the wonders of Spring. I'm basking in these glorious moments and nothing can touch me. A feather-like soul comes to us all too seldom and must be relished like a gourmet meal, by creeping low amongst the pathways and beds, letting yourself be filled with the wonder unfolding about you. One feels so small, yet so great, in that one had a hand in the bounty. You can feel the tears swelling as one watches sprouting seeds reaching for the lifegiving sun in a world abosolutely strange to their homelands. Do I want and iced tea or a gin and tonic. Oh, how the question tourchers the spirit. The thirst, the thirst.PS: thanks Fred!
