Subject: [Sansevierias] Trying to decide on plants to buy or ask for from other members

Hi:

I've been spending a lot of time with Bob Smolley's list of Sansevierias.  I
know some are misidentified but this looks like one group of plants that
needs some formal dna study done to finally sort everything out.

Here is a short list of some I would really like starts of:

The S. Trifasciata cultivars -- I have the basic trifasciata and T.
Laurentii.  I'd love any of them but have a special desire to have some of
the shorter growing ones like Lillian True (or Sliped stripes --whatever is
right now) and Silver Laurentii.  Am open to all and any of the Trifasciata
cultivars including the Hahnii group.

If someone has some to offer for postage, it would really be appreciated.  I
am trying to build a good collection before it gets too cold to ship to
Michigan--anytime before November 1st is normally okay.  After that, it
simply isn't worth the risk.

I am trying hard to learn correct names for the cultivars but I know some
keep getting changed.  Am in contact with Juan and the society as necessary.

Thanking you in advance for any that people can offer.

Oh, Steve J. told me that "parva" was one of the fastest growing species
along with "dooneri".  I have some parva coming but would really like a 2nd
plant.  I'd also like 2 starts of "dooneri" if anyone has extra.

I'll try to put together a possible list and see what others think.  I'd
really like people that see my collection realize that snake plants are so
much more than those simple green plants!

I just learned that my nephew's house was destroyed by the hurricane.  He
lives in Gulfport Mississippi.  His truck, located at the air force base,
was damaged by the horrible winds.  He said 70 ft. cement light poles were
snapping like toothpicks on the base.

Re: Trying to decide on plants to buy or ask for from other members

I am looking for a S. 'Nealsonii' marginated.   Lf. edges.  that look like S. laurentii.   Norma   
 
I am hoping to be sending out some of my plants, the first will be going to Pat and Nella, to say thank you.  They have been real friends, and good helpers, did so much for me without asking what is in it for them.  Dale also helped me,  we took him out to lunch and I supplied journals that he was missing and printed off a book he didn't have for reference,  he took all my pictures for me.  It took him hours,  I really appreciated his help. So gave him some as my plants as well.   I'm so proud to be on this list,  it's not a greedy bunch at all, we love to exchange our plants. 
 Lori, thank you for offering,  I do have those plants, but others don't.  There are just a few that I'm looking for now.  I'm really to interested in the obsure named so called hybrids, that we really don't know what they are.  They would really need to be great for me to add those.  Hugs, Norma

Re: Speaking of limes, does anyone have this plant...

Lori,

Blimey, but I'm like a limey always looking for lime green plants to 
put in the limelight. Is "Lime Streaker" just another name for an 
established variety or what? Sounds like you consider it a lemon.

Re: Re: Speaking of limes, does anyone have this plant...

Hi Walt,
  In my opinion, 'Lime Streaker' is a lemon.  It is not the chartreuse color they show on the website, it is something like a dull green S. trifasciata.  Asiatica said that in bright light it would get the color shown on their website but alas, they lied, as mine has been in a Southern exposure window since May and it is the same dull green.  It is not a particularly healthy plant either.  After 2 months of my TLC,  my cat decided to chase a bird on the other side of the window knocking that plant over.  There was not one new root growth on the plant after 2 months, sigh, and still no new pups so it gets a thumbs down from me.  On the other side,  I am no Sans expert by far but I have seen a few, own maybe 30 or so and I have not seen one the same color of it anyway so I guess it could be a new variety.(?)  You nev er know Walt, one woman's trash could be another man's treasure so don't take my word as gospel. Just a humble opinion from a novice.

Lori,

Blimey, but I'm like a limey always looking for lime green plants to
put in the limelight. Is "Lime Streaker" just another name for an
established variety or what? Sounds like you consider it a lemon.

Re: Trying to decide on plants to buy or ask for from other members

Norma, I know I'm not crazy so I'm quoting your previous post,
 
 "There is a short one called Compacta, and a Silver called Trifasciata silver, which I can't separate this year again.  I only do them every three years.   I wish I could get new ones for postage or a trade."
 
That is why I asked if you needed those plants.  I know you want 'Banded Nelsonii'.  If mine ever pups, you are welcome to it also.

I am hoping to be sending out some of my plants, the first will be going to Pat and Nella, to say thank you.  They have been real friends, and good helpers, did so much for me without asking what is in it for them.  Dale also helped me,  we took him out to lunch and I supplied journals that he was missing and printed off a book he didn't have for reference,  he took all my pictures for me.  It took him hours,  I really appreciated his help. So gave him some as my plants as well.   I'm so proud to be on this list,  it's not a greedy bunch at all, we love to exchange our plants. 
 Lori, thank you for offering,  I do have those plants, but others don't.  There are just a few that I'm looking for now.  I'm really to interested in the obsure named so called hybrids, that we really don't know what they are.  They would really need to be great for me to add those.  Hugs, Norma

Norma,
  Did you say you are looking for a 'Compacta' and a 'Silver Laurentii'?  I could spare both, if you need them. let me know.

Diana, I am certainly sorry to hear bad news, I'm still waiting to here from a dear friend, he was in New Orleans, he is safe, but may have lost his home.  It's going to take a lone time for them to dig out.  I hope they were at least able to save they animals.
 
I may have one to send, I am getting ready to ship more out.  It's the time I don't have,  what does one do for boxes for these long plants?   There is a short one called Compacta, and a Silver called Trifasciata silver, which I can't separate this year again.  I only do them every three years.   I wish I could get new ones for postage or a trade.  I'm still looking for Nealsonii the one with the edges that look like S. trifasciata on the  outside edges.  I guess it's called banded S. nealsonii.  Never had that one.   Diana they don't get changed, they are just renamed for convience of the seller, he doesn't know the name in the first place.  The species are renamed because they just weren't published correctly to the modern rules, so the old names are just dumped or giv en syn. rateing.   That way the new publisher has something to write about, and gets the credits.  I just went outside I have a plant called what I believe to be S. tri. 'Compacta'   shorter leaves but has the same coloring as the rest.  I like the plant.  There is also a 'Wagner Gold' which looks the same to me, I just can't see the difference.  I don't know if I have an extra of that,  I have just repotted and gave my extra plants away just last year.  They take so darn long to grow until they get a good start.  Send me an address.  It's a lot of work to repot, and I had help, getting them out of the pot is the most difficult for me, my hands and wrists are not strong enough any more.    Norma

Subject: [Sansevierias] Trying to decide on plants to buy or ask for from other members

Hi:

I've been spending a lot of time with Bob Smolley's list of Sansevierias.  I
know some are misidentified but this looks like one group of plants that
needs some formal dna study done to finally sort everything out.

Here is a short list of some I would really like starts of:

The S. Trifasciata cultivars -- I have the basic trifasciata and T.
Laurentii.  I'd love any of them but have a special desire to have some of
the shorter growing ones like Lillian True (or Sliped stripes --whatever is
right now) and Silver Laurentii.  Am open to all and any of the Trifasciata
cultivars including the Hahnii group.

If someone has some to offer for postage, it would really be appreciated.  I
am trying to build a good collection before it gets too cold to ship to
Michigan--anytime before November 1st is normally okay.  After that, it
simply isn't worth the risk.

I am trying h ard to learn correct names for the cultivars but I know some
keep getting changed.  Am in contact with Juan and the society as necessary.

Thanking you in advance for any that people can offer.

Oh, Steve J. told me that "parva" was one of the fastest growing species
along with "dooneri".  I have some parva coming but would really like a 2nd
plant.  I'd also like 2 starts of "dooneri" if anyone has extra.

I'll try to put together a possible list and see what others think.  I'd
really like people that see my collection realize that snake plants are so
much more than those simple green plants!

I just learned that my nephew's house was destroyed by the hurricane.  He
lives in Gulfport Mississippi.  His truck, located at the air force base,
was damaged by the horrible winds.  He said 70 ft. cement light poles were
snapping like toothpicks on the base.
