Actually, both these species propagate freely by the production of stolons. The harder ones to propagate are those that are few-clumping or solitary, in particular species in the Asperata complex which predictably have the most attractive foliage.

But not all is bad news. One thing we have been witnessing is that quite a number of species of these solitary ore few-offsetting species regenerate in the wild from the leaves. Some even produce plantlets on the leaf backs.

Dear Devin,

Aloha.

Beautiful Schismatoglottis species. Let us know if you find additional sources as the genus is large, but the number of species available is low. Peter can advise on the division of propagules...there is limit according to the growth habit of the plants.

Aloha,

Leland

Peter I got that blog post put together. Here is the link...

http://hydrophytesblog.com/?p=3D1952

Please excuse my garbled treatment of the references and other scientific
information that I cite. I really need to sit down and review material
like the Boyce and Wong paper more carefully. It is so great that those
recent Schismatoglottideae references are available online as pdfs.

These links got to the quick specimen shots that I got for those two
Schismatoglottis.

Schismatoglottis 'Frosty Kiss'.

These are pretty cool little plants. I will try my best not to kill 'em
and get them to grow.

Cheers,

Devin

Hi Devin,

It's a bit of a new venture - we've only been 'up' for a couple of months.
Our next step is to buy a 'pro' account and really get some stuff uploaded -
we've nearly 15,000 images here!

We're also planning to add detailed complete descriptive notes on the site
as time goes by.

I'd love to see the plants you've got when you get the images.

Very best

Peter

Those are really fantastic pictures Peter. I had never seen your flickr
page before.

Just yesterday my Asiatica Nursery order came with the Schismatoglottis
'Frosty Kiss' and S. picta that I had ordered. They are nice little
plants. I mean to take some pictures and post them into that thread that I
had started about Piptospatha.

Cheers,

Devin
