The San Pedros are doing fine. The attached pic is old:


Wow, nice collection Katra!


Thanks. ;-)
Succulents/cacti are one thing I seem to have good luck with.
I also have some baby Peruvian Torches in a small terrarium.


I forgot about the trade (I'm also Musky Lure). Unfortunately, I've
phased out my Brugmansias because I got tired of constantly dealing with
spider mites. They need quite a bit of water, too. Daturas are far
easier to grow. The seeds sometimes take a month or so to germinate,
but if you plant a bunch, some will sprout in a reasonable amount of
time. I have several varieties of Datura seed. Also, I have several
Iochromas that I can root cuttings from. My Salvia divinorums are
struggling in the heat and won't be good for cuttings until they recover
in the fall.

I'll get some Datura seeds together and start rooting a few Iochromas
for you. I have tree tobacco seeds, too, if you're interested.

I'd be delighted to trade some San Pedro cuttings (buds actually) for
some Datura seeds with sprouting/culture instructions? Soil and lighting
conditions?

PT's don't seem to care much. G They've done well for me as long as
the soil is right.
