Re: Updated seed lists
Thanks Aiko for uploading the list. I'd like to buy some Ariocarpus seeds. Till now, I bought them from kakteen.cz, but they told that this year they're not selling seeds (which is funny). Do have ever bought A. seeds from Nechvil? If yes, was it a good purchase in terms of germination, quality of the seedlings etc?

Re: Updated seed lists
Nechvil lacked terms and conditions of sale, and its prices are kinda high, If you want to risk it, go right ahead.
Just make sure there arent any hidden expenses.

Re: Updated seed lists
I checked one hour ago, I was struck by the terms... Like you have to buy at least for an amount of 50?, whoa. I'm not willing to do such purchase! My average expense is around 20-25?.
Re: Updated seed lists
Listen, there was this one on e-bay from Italy - samu.babyplant.
Most of his seeds germinated-but i cant confirm that theyre what i was looking for- i kinda forgot to label them, and the seedlings are too small to ID.

Re: Updated seed lists
Service is good, rather quick really. But chances are some are already sold out. Prices are high, but he offers interesting species and of of them sell out fast I am sure. I have good experience with this seller in the two times I have ordered there.Ksenija87 wrote:Do have ever bought A. seeds from Nechvil?

You are too negative. There are no hidden expense (although postal costs is something you want to keep in mind). Usually it is close to 6 to 8 euros if they send it in a box.stefan m. wrote:Nechvil lacked terms and conditions of sale, and its prices are kinda high, If you want to risk it, go right ahead.

Re: Updated seed lists
Aiko, I've eventually decided for SuccSeeds, which I saw you also recommended. I'm started last year growing cacti from seeds, so I think that for now this purchaser it's fine. I also wanted to buy Tavaresia angolensis, but I couldn't find the seeds anywhere, at least not at SuccSeeds. Got any idea?

Thanks Elieestephane!
Re: Updated seed lists
I second this. I've tried seed from multiple sources, multiple times and their seed has given me consistently the best germination. Couple that with a superb service and you have a winner. Not the cheapest, but the excellent results you get offset this considerably.elieestephane wrote:Yes they are very good!Ksenija87 wrote:Aiko, I've eventually decided for SuccSeeds, which I saw you also recommended.

Don't have experience ordering here, though. But some interesting species, like Euphorbia gymnocalycioides and Tylecodon leucothrix.

Are you sure? I have never ordered from SuccSeeds, so I can't imagine I would recommend it (probably only made an announcement it was updated).Ksenija87 wrote:Aiko, I've eventually decided for SuccSeeds, which I saw you also recommended.
Re: Updated seed lists
jfabiao: thanks for you feedback, I also got the feeling they're a serious online shop. Do they send you an email when they ship?
Aiko: sorry!!!! I saw it in one of your announcements. Yep, they have nice stuff.
