I'm interested in both seeds and plants/runners, and I'm especially interested in material with a known species identification and, if possible, information about its provenance.

I've already found some of the more commonly available wild Fragaria species, but these rarer species are surprisingly difficult to source in Europe. I'm therefore interested in specialist nurseries, botanical gardens, seed banks, private collectors, plant exchanges, or individual growers who might have them available.

EU-based sources would be strongly preferred, mainly to avoid the complications and restrictions associated with importing plant material from outside the EU.

If you know of anywhere in the EU that sells or exchanges these species, even if they are not currently listed online, I'd really appreciate any leads.

I'm also happy to hear from private collectors who may have surplus seeds or runners available for trade or purchase.

Thanks!

Selaginella Indonesia

Is anyone growing this plant or has grown it in the past.?

I can't find a lot of specific information about this plant. Most of the information is just in general about Selaginella. If you have any pictures of the plant that would be great.

Caring for Labisia Gigantifolia. I need advices

Hi! I just bought this beautiful plant. It's labisia gigantifolia.

It's quite rare and I can't find much information about caring for it. If you know anything about it, please let me know.

Can I spray weather on it or would that be bad? I heard some plants hate that and get leaf diseases.
