Default Re: Sikkimensis

Joe , I'm no expert on Sikkimensis , some of the old gang at UKOasis have a lot of experience with this plant as a UK perhaps hardy plant gets a lot of attention. I'm not sure how many years they have been growing them. I think I was wrong when I said some hardiness is conected to colour , if I remember right it's just the luck of the draw on which , clone or seed you end up with. I was working on getting a hardier clone before I departed Europe. My plant which Andrew in Holland has ( Andrew is from BC Canada ) has not been tried outdoors yet , I guess when he gets a couple of pups to try outside he will do it . There must be a few plants here with good colour too it's just finding them . I have some seeds on order and will order more and keep hoping for a stunning Sikkis.

p.s. you could ask at UKOasis for more info , there are also members here like Mark Hall of UKOasis who would know more than me about hardy coloured forms.
