Meanie:

I used to have this plant in the ground at my other house. I regret not digging it out, when I moved, because it's not too available in the nurseries here.

Yeah...... I think that would have been a "keeper"!

Meanie:

My friend in Northern San Diego County has this plant at his nursery (where I purchased it years ago).

Here's the link:

then enter Schaueria flavicoma in the search.

Can't look at that sight anymore - it's sooo cheap!!! We're practically paying that kind of money for seeds over here!

Meanie:

LOL!

It's too bad Michael Kartuz only ships in the U.S.!
He has some incredibly rare stuff...which he only sells to walk in customers. I purchased my Markhamia zanzibarica from him many years ago...this tree is virtually never for sale in CA.

It has gone onto my favourites, just because it'll be a nice place to dream!

Meanie:

Glad you liked the website. I've purchased many plants from Katuz's Greenhouses over the last 20 years.
