We have offered I. rosenbachiana for several years at what is a ridiculously low price compared to European sources, and have sold virtually none, except for the ones DBG ordered. This is true of all the Junos -- they're wonderful plants and far more growable than alleged, but no one is going to make a living selling them! And yes, they're true I. rosenbachiana, from a source upstream from J. Ruksans.
