Hi Indiana.Matt.
I would be happy to send you some white cuttings, but right now they are jam-packed with buds waiting to bloom. I don't need any red ones though. I have several different colors. Do you have any other houseplants to offer? Can you wait until my blooms fade? If so, i can hook you up with a bunch of cuttings. =)

Wonderful! I will be glad to wait until it is finished flowering. I don't have any other house plants right now. :(
I would be more than happy to send postage.
I might also be interested in your Aechmea - Del Mar pups.

Now, I'm in Indiana and it is going into winter now. I got my Christmas cactus as cuttings in a trade in the winter and they handled the winter mailing just fine. I do have a PO box you can send them to, so they won't be sitting in my mailbox outside in the cold.
Do you have or know anyone who has ficus benjamina trees? I would love some cuttings.

Let me know, thanks!

I just saw where you were also looking for ficus.....I have Ficus Alli (cuttings), Benjamina Neon (cuttings) and Benjamina Too Little (two small rooted cuttings). It looks like I'm a one-stop shopping trip for you....LOL

Oh my...so much to choose from.

Ok, put me down for:
1. White Christmas Cactus
2. Yellow Christmas Cactus
3. Ficus Benjamina Neon (I think that is the one I was actually looking for.)

I only need a few cutting of each cactus. Nothing crazy, just enough to get me started.

Are ficus easy to root? Just send whatever you think I should have of the ficus. Can you take a photo of the ficus for me?

Thanks,
Matthew Condon

Ficus neon is named after the lighter and brighter green new growth. These leaves darken with age.

And some leaves have a variegation along the midrib that fades with time.

I have started many ficus from cuttings, but only in the warmer months. I took cuttings last night, placed them in water and have them on a heat mat to see if that will get them going quickly for you.
