I was reading the email on Stenomesson, which reminded me to get on the
PBS website to try to ID the pot of ? , seed started from someone in
France 2008? Seed was very similar to clivia seed if anyone can help me
on that. I thought it started with st?
Anyway, I saw the entry for Streptopus. That is a very hardy plant and
grows everywhere here. Here being the Rocky Mountain House area in
Alberta, Canada. I've found it within 20 km of home, it is quite
rampant in fact. It is definitely hardy to Zone 2. I found a beautiful
specimen last week on a seed hunting trip to Shunda View Point, approx.
80 km west of Rocky. I collected the berries and I'm going to attempt
again to figure out germination.
