68362 BEAUCARNEA RECURVATA AGA HP CGH PRICE: $ 5.00 Distinctive species of "Bottle Ponytail" with lush thick foliage of grassy green forming a thick fountain of arching leaf blades atop the thick trunk which arises from the dramatic swollen base.

This species has narrower leaves than the regular ponytail. Often blue in color when grown in good light. Also good for bonsai pot culture.

56276 BEGONIA CRASSICAULIS U0674 BEG TGH PRICE: $ 5.50 (thick-stemmed) Impressive stout thick upright stems hold large sharp lobed deciduous leaves; enormous sprays of tiny flowers appear in late winter as the canes break dormancy.

56260 BEGONIA VALLIDA BEG HP CGH PRICE: $ 8.00 (thick stemmed) Quite a bold presence with thick bamboo mimic stalks shingled with bright acid green wide leaves with odd delicately toothed margins and an attractive pattern of veins.

Excellent indoors for those of us not gardening in the tropics. Also listed in some sources as Pseudobombax elipticum. Ask about larger sizes.

65084 BOWIEA VOLUBILIS LIL HP TGH PRICE: $12.50 "Climbing Onion" Pale spherical bulbs send up many-branched stems of pale ochre; flowers greenish-white. Considered to be quite toxic if ingested--do not grow this intriguing plant if children are around. Each stem that arises from the bulb is actually a modified leaf. Be careful not to cover the bulb when planting.

55508 BRACHYCHITON RUPESTRIS STE HP TGH PRICE: $4.75 The fabulous "Australian/Queensland Bottle Tree" so called for the wonderfully swollen base (and trunk with time and age) making for a great tropical pseudobonsai potential, especially as this beauty flourishes in containers. Not only a wonderful woody caudex base but also small deeply fingered black green leathery leaves with a dramatic silver to pink toned midrib. Base is swollen some even at an early age; and, planted outdoors in the tropics, with maturity it produces bizarre bell shaped tomentose flowers typical of the Sterculiaceae family.

60558 BURSERA FAGAROIDES BUR HP CGH PRICE: $ 12.00 Named for the pinnate leaves resemblence to the Prickly-Ash family such as fellow West-indian native, the Satinwood. Heavy trunks topped by interlaced limber stems with strong fragrance, thus the "Mexican Frankinensense Shrub." Fabulous in the greenhouse succulent collection; handsome as a sunny windowsill potplant; always popular among bonsai fanciers as the leaves remain petite and the trunk becomes more and more swollen with fascinating bark. We include several pictures of older trees in pots. These sometimes are available at about $100.00--please inquire about these much older, larger specimens.

65091 CALIBANUS HOOKERI LIL HP TGH PRICE: $ 15.00 Large quite wide corky caudex of a "Ponytail"; a small rock mimic caudex base gradually grows to asume a very broad surface from which sprout multi-headed tufts of semi-glaucous leathery leaves. Central Mexico.

60019 CEROPEGIA LINEARIS WOODII HYBRID ASC HP TGH PRICE: $ 5.50 "Spade Leaved Rosary Vine" or "String of Hearts" Thread-like vine with large "rosary bead" tubercles and small pairs of heart-leaves designed with bright silver surfaces. This clone differs from the standard species by having more elongated leaves and different coloring. Most likely a hybrid, but very distinctive!

60985 CEROPEGIA LINEARIS WOODII PINK EDGE ASC TGH HP PRICE: $12.00 The remarkeble "Variegated Rosary Vine" with each fleshy heart shaped leaf bordered in creamy pink. Marketed as 'Lady Heart' in Asian nurseries. This is so extremely variegated as to be quite slow growing and demanding of quite specific cultural conditions: needs perfect drainage in a shallow container (orchid bark or pumice added to a soilless mix is perfect), with good air movement, and no exposure to chill. Sometimes there is a wait if you order when we have a crop getting ready. This is a very much sought after plant.

41357 CISSUS HAMADEROHENSIS VIT HP TGH PRICE: $ 4.75 "Tapeworm Grape" Thick slate green flattened tapeworm stems of long-spaced joints climb with tendrils; leaves deciduous. For kids, this is a totally neat plant. This can be visually amazing if encouraged to wrap its flattened woody self around and around a succulent wreath as a decorative "ribbon" mimic. Sent as mossed URCuts if have none potted when you order as it seems to travel fine as a mossed cut.

41062 CISSUS QUADRANGULA [QUADRANGULARIS] VIT PRICE: $10.00 Weird four-sided winged succulent sectioned stems; small leaves soon decidious; green flower clusters followed by tiny wooden grape fruit if reaches mature stature. Favorite of succulent collectors; but avoid high levels of humidity and give perfect drainage. We prefer to send this as an unrooted cutting in dry perlite. *Please note the wide range of Cissus species offered in the TROPICAL PLANTS section of this website.

41064 CISSUS QUINANGULARIS VIT HP TGH PRICE: $ 4.75 Attractive succulent with five-winged thick woody stems; dark decidious leaves are thick succulent wedges jutting out from the nodes. Most interesting in any rare vine collection; of easy culture as long as is situated in adequate light--seems unconcerned as to humidity levels as long as the roots are in a perfectly drained mix. Indeed, this species is as easy to grow as quadrangula can be difficult. Quite popular with designers of open wire topiary frames.

60240 CRASSULA ARBORESCENS ARBORESCENS CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 6.75 LIMITED AVAILABILITY "Silver Dollar Jade" or "Cookie Plant" Thick tree-like trunk heavily branched with silver-gray rounded leaves with reddish dots and edges. The foliage is easily damaged by high humidity--best left indoors in climates as muggy as ours. Limited; most successfully sent as unrooted cuttings in dry moss or perlite; the leaves often shatter from the stems in shipment--do not be alarmed, just grow out new sets. If you wish to received rooted plants in pots, please inquire for schedule and price.

60241 CRASSULA ARBORESCENS UNDULATIFOLIA CRA HP PRICE: $ 3.50 "Blue Bird Jade" Bluish-gray elongate twisted leaf pairs stand erect on much branched pseudo-tree. Good succulent bonsai with compact rounded heads of pink star flowers whose glossy petals are more wide and blunt than those of most C. ovata cultivars. If the leaves develop any surface scars, this usually means that the ambient conditions are too humid.

60252 CRASSULA FLAVA CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 4.25 "Table Mountain Pickle Plant" Mat forming Cape Town native with numerous tiny fat spindle shaped leaves covered with short bristly white hairs ( so "Ciliate"!) on much branching slim stems.

61049 CRASSULA FERNWOOD [COCCINEA CAMPFIRE] CRA CGH HP PRICE: $ 4.25 Stout upright stems laden with squared-off pairs of fleshy leaves which take on a remarkable orangy copper coloring in bright light and cool conditions. It needs to be repotted from time to time because it grows pups that hang over the edge of the pot sometimes in a umkempt way. But worth the effort people who do not mind grooming their plants from time to time.

60259 CRASSULA MARGINALIS CRA HP TGH PRICE: $ 3.25"String of Buttons" The opposite oval red-edged button leaves fuse around the stem like some Eucalyptus. Perfect much branching small statured subject for hanging baskets, fine on succulent wreaths.

60262 CRASSULA MULTICAVA CRA HP TGH PRICE: $ 3.50 Pairs of wide flat oval hazy green leaves peppered and dimpled in purple-red on thick stems; mid-winter masses of starry pinkish-white blossoms sometimes in such numbers to often topple these pinkish stems, thus the "Fairy Crassula" in European trade. Very reliable mid-winter blossom sprays are hopelessly charming. If you tend to overwater your succulents, this is the plant for you.

60263 CRASSULA MULTICAVA MEDIOPICTA CRA CGH HP PRICE: $ 6.50 Wide fleshy succulent leaves with lime centers; showy winter sprays of tiny white starflowers are quite attractive.

60266 CRASSULA OVATA CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 4.50 Formerly C. argentea. "Jade Tree" or "Chinese Rubber Tree." The basic: stout brown tanned trunks support the heavy mass of succulent glossy green blunt-edged leaves; sprays of starry white flowers are produced mid winter if the plant is given some cool conditions (do not freeze!) early fall to set the buds.

60906 CRASSULA OVATA OBLIQUA CALIFORNIA RED TIP CRA CGH HP PRICE: $7.25 Distinctive slow growing "Red Rimmed Jade Tree" originating with Ed Hummel long ago, with a subtle hue of purplish-red on the fat leaves' rims (when given bright light to full sun). Paired rimmed leaves on stout woody trunks; but without intense light, cool winter conditions and very limited fertilizer, the subtle color will quite likely not develop.

60272 CRASSULA OVATA PALLIDA [HORT] CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 12.00 "Silver Jade Tree" more sensitive to chill than the other cultivars. Not really silver, but leaves of a pallid rine-gray tone. Another unusual Hummel selection rarely offered as grows very slowly and deliberately--not to be confused with the similarly colored C. arborescens which is far far larger statured. Much prized by collectors.

60641 CRASSULA OVATA RUBIFLORA CRA HP TGH PRICE: $ 8.00 "Pink Flowering Jade" Vigorous cultivar with open rounded clusters of starry pale satiny pink two-tone blossoms--petals longer and much narrower than most C. arborescens cvs. In warm conditions, the tiny blossoms are white to soft pearl in tone.

60270 CRASSULA OVATA SUNSET [HORT ] CRA HP CGH PRICE: $12.00 "Golden Jade Tree" In bright saturated light and cool (not chill, please) temperatures the leaves can become richly edged in golden ochre--warm temperatures and high nitrogen fertilizer will prevent this edging contrast. Very striking as a large specimen. Be cause these are grown in our greenhouses, these plants are often shipped withouth the full color recorded in the picture image. If you have a bright location with coolish nights, the best color can be achieved.

60276 CRASSULA OVATA VARIEGATA CRA HP CGHPRICE: $18.00 Golden cream stripes on fat blunt-edged wide leaves; very flashy cultivar which will remain rare due to tendency to produce reverted green or albino branches. Handsome. This price reflects starter sized plants of this extremely rare variegate. We often need lead time to prepare this before shipping.

60279 CRASSULA OVATA OBLIQUA TRICOLOR CRA PRICE: $ 4.50 "Tricolor Jade" The commonly seen variegated "Jade Tree" with creamy white and rose striped pointed (not blunt tipped) leaves typically having a slight twist in orientation. Please note that any dark spots appearing on the succulent leaf surface indicates too much humidity in the immediate environment. This is currently available as unrooted cuttings shipped in perlite.

60280 CRASSULA PERFOSSA VARIEGATA CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 4.75 "Necklace Vine" Erect woody stems with fused keeled gray leaves with yellow-cream variegation which fades as the older foliage matures. May shipped be mossed cuts. Curious old heirloom from the Hummel collection.

60284 CRASSULA PORTULACEA CONVOLUTA GOLLUM CRA HP PRICE: $ 5.50 "Trumpet Jade" Stiff short woody trunks support tufts of bizarre leaves so fused that only a curious trumpet fish-mouth remains at the tip--rather like E.T.'s fingers! The cute name once again makes sense to customers thanks to recent blockbuster films.

60285 CRASSULA PORTULACEA CONVOLUTA HOBBIT CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 7.50 Each leaf is rolled in from the sides and nearly fused into various bizarre forms of fat unrolled cigarettes. Popular conversation piece developing a considerably different outline as assumes a more mature habit than that of 'Gollum.'

60283 CRASSULA PORTULACEA RUBRA CAC CGH PRICE: $ 4.50 "Crosby's Compact Jade" Darker foliage on purplish trunks.Small statured & heavily self-branched: handsome in bonsai pot. More compact in stature, more tolerant of lower light, and uncomplicated in cultural demands quarentee that this self branching shrublet remain the most popular "Jade" for tropical succulent bonsai. Needs full sun for the 'rubra' tones to kick in. Easiest to grow of the jade tree tribe, tolerating a wide range of conditions.

60288 CRASSULA SARMENTOSA MEDIO-PICTA CRA HP CGH PRICE: $ 3.25 Cascading succulent stems punctuated with pairs of rounded coarsely toothed waxed leaves with creamy-greengold central stripes--this sport originated in our greenhouses in the mid seventies and remains popular in the trade today.

60291 CRASSULA TETRAGONA CRA HP TGH PRICE: $5.50 "Chinese Pine" Stiff woody slim stems studded with spindle shaped needle leaves in four rigid ranks; white flowered native of the Eastern Cape is most effective grown in groups displayed in a small bonsai pot.

61008 CRASSULA WOODII CRA HP TGH PRICE: $ 4.00 Petite tumbling tinkertoy stems set with multitudes of paired tiny fat leaflets; cute tuffet for a planter. Always popular as a key element of succulent wreaths. The perfect tuffet for the base of a succulent bonsai.

66017 CRYPTOCEREUS ANTHONYANUS CAC HP TGH PRICE: $ 5.50 "Zig Zag Cactus" or "Anthony's Rickrack" Fragrant peachy yellow and red night blooms on the sculpturesque flat fishbone designed stems. This is an epiphyte from Chiapas rainforest so avoid scorching sun and plant in an epiphytic mix--Epiphyllum culture. Smaller statured and far easier to grow and to flower than the massive Epiphyllum chrysocardium.

50513 CYANOTIS KEWENSIS COMM HP TGH PRICE: $ 4.25 Malabar native with compact, ground-hugging stems claasped by triangular fleshy leaves felted chocolate-brown; Mid winter tiny blue-violet flowers shy to bloom. Best to keep in a very shallow container, avoid high humidity and give consistently high light levels--direct sun is a preference.

50514 CYANOTIS SOMALIENSIS COMM HP CGH $ 3.50 "Pussy Ears" Succulent creeper with triangular curved, gloss green leaves with soft white hairs creating a "fringe"; flowers said to be purple & orange--although after growing this twenty years, we have yet to observe any. Excellent for small baskets; perfect groundcover in succulent dish gardens, and a perfect addition to any succulent wreath.

60634 CYNANCHUM DECAISNIANUM [AFFINITY] ASC TGH PRICE: $ 4.75 Madagascar species with terete jointed branches accented occassionally by tiny clusters of blimp blossoms to show its kinship with the Dischidia kith. Sent as unrooted cuttings. (from the succulent collection at the Milwaukee Domes) This easily grown "Swallow Wort" Arches, inches, ascends moss, cascades--putty in your hands--even quite effective as a decidedly weird wraparound sting/ribbon on a succulent wreath design.
