And this weeks plant fix is a doozy of a fix. As usual some great actually fantastic plants this week to add to the garden in a few years time. It never ends with so many new plants available now with the internet and online ordering if I could import live plants I would, it is possible to do so but very expensive and time consuming also iam not going to deal with the red tape involved the way customs have been with seed imports. So this week we have as follows a sonerila extra spotty purchased for a stock plant to take cuttings from. The packaging is exceptionally good you unbox them and it’s like you just picked them up from the nursery but better. A microsorium whiteheadii a sumatran fern that takes the cold I already have one that has survived three winters well. Next is a calytrocalyx tininum, alocasia equiloba aka spotted papua, licuala png dwarf, Areca song thonhensis, Calpytrocalyx julianettii, Ptychococcus species and a aroid sp hapaline benthamiana. Some good winners there for a zone push some proven some will need to carefully watched in winter to see how they go. Also on a good note I have booked a session with a psychologist to see if therapy is really needed for my addiction but I know what I will be telling them forget it I don’t won’t a cure just give me more plants to buy doc!

Very nice! If the therapist tells you that you have too many plants , stop seeing them immediately. You don’t need negativity in your life! Harry

Beautiful plants!  Are these sourced from within AU?

I did consider an intervention with fellow palm nuts in Australia, but they  would be no help as they’re in the same boat as me fully addicted like the rest of us.

Yes from within Australia. Pretty well much a lot of there stuff, not all but most is found nowhere else in Australia. The day they retire Australia will lose a very special plant supplier of some of the rarest stuff around.
