WTB: various (sub)tropical plants in Europe

[Gaby Chaudry]

Hi all,

I'm desperately seeking for the following plants:

Christia vespertilionis (Island pea) Gossypium sturtianum (Sturt's Desert Rose, from down under) Boswellia serrata (incense tree)

As for the Christia, seeds may be also o.k., but for the latter ones, I've already tried without success.

I'm situated in Germany (no way to get them here, all three totally unavailable, sold out, not this year a.s.o.....), therefore a distributor in another European country would be perfect. Also cuttings would be great.

Any hint is highly aprreciated, if possible CC via e-mail (see sig.), as I don't check this group too often.

Best wishes and thanks in advance Gaby

"Desperate", but can't be bothered checking the group to see if anyone took the trouble to help you?

Janet,

No, not really.... After so mainy mails to dealers and posts to several forums and groups with no (positive) answer, checking for no answer too regularly only feeds my despair ...

Sorry if I've chosen the wrong words.....

Oh, okay :-)

You might try in uk.rec.gardening (easier regulations within Europe, than getting plants from USA..this is a mostly American group). You could ask if somebody would look them up in RHS plantfinder for a UK supplier.
