Talas Spring Start 2009

[lee]

Didn't knew that the Arabic countries have great plants like that. Love Arabic food

[talas]

So interesting stuff you got over there!

Morango looks very fascinating too, a little neydeish perhaps.

So the Naga Lemon is Naga Morich(yipee, I guessed it!!) crossed with Lemon Drop? it surely looks like it.

Can't wait to see the results from it!
Seems like you're on the science side too.

Keep on experimenting, can't wait to see more!!

Well morango is a very interesting plant it has been around a number of years and is definitely one of the nicest tasting c.chinese variety s i have tried,The Neyde plant is also a bit of a mystery as that lovely lady Neyde found it at the rear of her garden growing and swears it was not a cross with her other plants,but there has been some interesting plants found in the Bairro..Sao Geraldo area .Yes Naga lemon is a very interesting plant
and the pods i recived really had the citus bite with a hint of c.chinese and plenty of heat .

Didn't knew that the Arabic countries have great plants like that. Love Arabic food

Yes this plant comes from an avid grower in Dubai who i have become friends with he swears its from North Yemen but obviously the c.chinese is there to see he is a collector of all things Arabian from across the middle east(Plants/Flowers/Vegetables) and will be growing some variety's from other Arab country's when i have chance for a larger grow at the end of the year.

That arrivi is a nice one , looks like the chilli manaus I tried to germinate. How old are those lances ?, I would guess about 8 weeks
Wich one is that on those hydro pebbles?

[talas]

The lances not sure of age,they are part of a project where doing with Kew and Warwick Uni those and Various other plants have been sent down for study,The one in the stones is Peppadew 

[lee]

Lance is a very special plant with unusual growth/shape, I love that one

[talas]

Yes certainly likes to go anywhere and everywhere bit like some of the pubescen variety's which have that lovely bushy growth 

[Fatalii]

Will be very interesting to see the results from those hybrids, please post the pics also to actualy crossing projects section!
