But not received. I don't think you can send PMs if you are a recent new member?
Maybe after a few messages?

If that is the case, just mention your wants up here, and I will reserve the seeds for you (if possible). We can communicate about postal charges and addresses later.

I am out of a few sorts again as they were low in stock. The list is getting short now...

I have the following species available for free:
- Adenium arabicum (not much to offer)
- Gasteria sp.
- Pleiospilos compactus subsp. canus
- Wigginsia sessiliflora var. macracantha (synonym of Wigginsia sellowii var. macracantha, Notocactus macranthus, Notocactus sellowii)

And I have these available for swapping only:
- Pseudolithos migiurtinus (keep warm throughout the year!)

All seeds on offer are free, unless the few species that are 'swapping only'. Freshly harvested, and most are harvested from my own plants from spring 2013 onwards.

The free seeds are available for the cost of just one (international) stamp. Reimbursement of postage via paypal, please. Reimbursement will be 1.50 euro for worldwide delivery. That's around 1.25 GBP / 2.05 USD. This already includes the paypal charges. Or you can swap seeds.

But swapping instead of reimbursement has my preference. I like swapping...! I am mostly much interested in seeds of African succulents.

Two species gone. Added seeds of a species that I very generously have been given by someone from Australia: Tecticornia verrucosa. This is quite an odd Australian succulent. Maybe an oddity: I think they are basically not out there in succulent collections worldwide, for as far as I know. I expect to be able to have one more update in March and will sow all left-overs myself late March / April.

I have the following species available for free:
- Adenium arabicum (not much to offer)
- Carnegiea gigantea
- Pleiospilos compactus subsp. canus (not much to offer)
- Tecticornia verrucosa (sowing in autumn has not proved to be successful)

And I have these available for swapping only:
- Pseudolithos migiurtinus (keep warm throughout the year!)

I am out of stock of Astrophytum myriostigma. But I have added Dorstenia crispa (thanks to Orion).

If you are interest in the Pseudolithos migiurtinus seeds, I advice you to get into action soon. As I will be sowing all the about 100 seeds I have left in about two weeks.

Yes I do.

I have added seeds of an Avonia, Turbinicarpus and Mestoklema, freshly harvested last week.
And I have removed the Cyphostemma seeds. There does not seem to be much interest in those, so I decided to sow them tomorrow morning (Europe time) as they are hard to germinate and then it might be better sow them in larger quantities. If you want some of the Cyphostemma juttae or Cyphostemma currori after all, be quick about letting me know!

I have the following species available for free:
- Adenium arabicum
- Anacampseros arachnoides (just a few seeds available)

- Echinocereus engelmannii
- Echinocereus fendleri

- Echinopsis hybrids
- Ferocactus cylindraceus
- Ferocactus pilosus
- Ferocactus wislizeni
- Mammillaria mazatlanensis
- Mestoklema tuberosum var. macrorrhizum (just a few seeds available)
- Neobuxbaumia polylopha
- Notocactus magnificus (synonym: Parodia magnifica)

- Pleiospilos compactus subsp. canus

- Turbinicarpus valdezianus var. albiflorus
- Turbinicarpus valdezianus var. valdezianus

And I have these available for swapping only:
- Welwitschia mirabilis

Expecting to offer soon, as I have seedpods ripening (so if you don't mind some patience):
- Haworthia springbokvlakensis (not much to offer, probably)
- Strombocactus disciformis
- Thelocactus hexaedrophorus
- Thelocactus rinconensis

All seeds on offer are free, unless the few species that are 'swapping only'. Freshly harvested, from spring 2013 onwards.

The free seeds are available for the cost of just one (international) stamp. Reimbursement of postage via paypal, please. Reimbursement will be 1.50 euro for worldwide delivery. That's around 1.25 GBP / 2.05 USD. This already includes the paypal charges.
