I bought it earlier this year, so this is still all new to me, but I must be doing something right, and yes it is supposed to be becoming quite rare Sanbaz, so I hope it all goes well.

That's great you can get this plant to bloom!

This is the same time of the year they bloom here in the ground.

Milky:

It's a great accomplishment!

Hopefully you can get some seeds from this plant! I think this plant only lives for 5 - 9 years only. I know some of the larger, older plants at the San Diego Zoo are starting to decline now. However, they have at least a couple dozen though. :>)

One of the world weirdest Lobelia's! But very beautiful all the same.

This is endangered in the wild with just seven thought to survive!

Good example this plant of a misnomer. It is of course not a true Palm or indeed even closely related.

So many island endemics are under threat, Hawaii, Madagascar, Socotra, Galapagos and even the Canary Islands relatively near us have many endemics under threat.

I want to visit all of the above!
