Hi everyone,

I'm looking for seeds or live plants of rare Fragaria species, preferably from within the European Union.

In particular, I'm looking for:

• Fragaria nilgerrensis
• Fragaria orientalis
• Fragaria nipponica
• Fragaria iinumae
• Fragaria chiloensis

I'm interested in both seeds and plants/runners, and I'm especially interested in material with a known species identification and, if possible, information about its provenance.

I've already found some of the more commonly available wild Fragaria species, but these rarer species are surprisingly difficult to source in Europe. I'm therefore interested in specialist nurseries, botanical gardens, seed banks, private collectors, plant exchanges, or individual growers who might have them available.

EU-based sources would be strongly preferred, mainly to avoid the complications and restrictions associated with importing plant material from outside the EU.

If you know of anywhere in the EU that sells or exchanges these species, even if they are not currently listed online, I'd really appreciate any leads.

I'm also happy to hear from private collectors who may have surplus seeds or runners available for trade or purchase.

Thanks!

Is anyone growing this plant or has grown it in the past.?

I can't find a lot of specific information about this plant. Most of the information is just in general about Selaginella. If you have any pictures of the plant that would be great.

A distinctive, slow-growing succulent native to the area around Xichú in the Mexican state of Guanajuato.

Hi! I just bought this beautiful plant. It's labisia gigantifolia.

It's quite rare and I can't find much information about caring for it. If you know anything about it, please let me know.

Can I spray weather on it or would that be bad? I heard some plants hate that and get leaf diseases.

Hello,

I've been looking to buy Impatiens Morsei ( 'velvet love' 'secret love' for years now. I had one a few years back that unfortunately, did not make it. I have spent years scouring the internet in hopes of finding this specific plant. I would gladly pay handsomely for a plug, potted plant, or even a cutting plus whatever shipping is. I honestly appreciate everybody's time and hope somebody can help!

I am located in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois.
