Longwood Hybrid F1's and cruziana -UPDATE-$80 + $40 Shipping NOW

[Timgod]

I have Longwood Hybrid F1's available for shipping now.

It looks like I have about 7 plants left to ship. They have pads about 3 to 4 inches in diameter.
They are $80.00 plus $40.00 2nd day shipping for anyone interested.

They are tough to grow from seed. You have plant success in about one seedling out of 20.
You must get it germinated and started growing, fight the algae, the snails and the aphids.
Once they get this size they must continue to grow and at about the 12 week growth cycle they become prohibitively expensive to ship.
These are rare to find.

I might also grow out some F2's. They would be a little less expensive but their variability makes growing them even tougher sometimes.

You are talking about Victorias, yes?

[Timgod]

Yes, the Longwood is the cross between a amazonica and a cruziana.
It is a more robust plant than either parent plant.
It just can't propagate itself further.

Okay, we shipped the first few Longwoods. They had to be sent 2nd day air to survive well.

That added $40 to the cost on the shipping.
I am dropping the price on the ones that are ready to ship now to $80.00.
With shipping that will make them $120.

I also have a two Victoria cruziana's. They are the same price and are ready to ship now.

If you are interested or know someone who is, just email me.

Most other places on the net are already sold out so this may be your last chance to get a vic this year if you want one.

By the way, your water temps must be over 70 before you could receive these and get them to live.

The last of them are ready to ship now for anyone interested with some space and warm water.

I have a friend interested in one. I will send you a PM.

We have 1 amazonica, 2 cruziana and 5 Longwoods left.
Not long before they will get too big to ship.
If you know someone who wants one of these, we are about the last ones left in the country with product.
