    Unfortunately I lost many plants due to loosing power and heat in my little front porch over a winter. I would dearly love any of these little guys anyone could part with. I do have some cuttings of white Christmas cactus and salmon/pink easter cactus for a trade if needed. thanks so much for considering.

    I have some actually orchid cactus plants and christmas cacti that i don't want anymore, unfortunately i live in Ottawa. If you have anyway of getting them they are yours, im not sure on the whole mailing plants or mailing cuttings. The orchid cactus is red/pink and the christmas cacti are orange,pink and red.

    I would be interested in the pink orchid cactus. My postal code is B2T 1A9. Not sure what it would cost to mail. If too expensive I can just pay for postage for cuttings if that is alright with you. Please let me know soon as its getting colder. Thanks, Rosa

    Hoya's are so beautiful! I am looking forward to growing my collection. Good luck with yours, and I'm sorry about your losses.

    That's great! I've been looking for Hoya Bella. I found 10 rooted cuttings on Ebay, so it's a great start. I really want to find a full plant and am on several waiting lists around town, lol.

    Logee's has a good selection of hoyas, they send rooted plants in 2 1/2" pots. Have ordered from them several times with good results.

    Rascaljade, even if you can't find a bella plant, it is one hoya that roots quickly from cuttings and grows quickly into a full plant, mostly due to branching out from the original stems, both at soil level and all along the stem.

    I am always looking for new hoyas, lol. I have accumulated a beautiful bella, plain carnosa, krimson queen and princess, erythrostemma, caudata, hollianna, pubicalyx, australis and kearri, polynera, and multiflora.
    Which hoyas do you have? Perhaps we could trade cuttings? Some of mine are not big enough to give cuttings right now, but most are. :)

    Padraigan,
    Would you post cuttings to the UK? (I have an import license if needed)

    Gee, I'm a little slow on answering ... I didn't see your post and I'm not sure why I didn't get it through my email.

    Have you found what you were looking for ? I have all my cuttings in pots now and the plants are doing well.

    P. :)

    I only managed to obtain a Bella so I'm still interested if you do export cuttings or plants.

    I don't know anything about exporting plants or cuttings. You'd have to fill me in.
