Looking for a Parthenocissus var.

16 years ago

As I am a vine fan and collector of the genus Ampelopsis and Parthenocissus, I'm looking and searching for an old variety with the name Parthenocissus piaszecki. I saw one some years ago in the Netherlands, but never could find a nursery growing them or even a single plant in a garden. Who could help me please ? I have collected in the last quarter of a century more than 30 different varieties of Ampelopsis and Parthenocissus.

Isn't out there some specialist who read this posting, nobody answered yet to my request, please. Ziggy

The only one I've heard of is the Virginia Creeper. Bluebell Arboretum & Nursery carry some varieties. Maybe they can help you find it.

Parthenocissus stricta
Q

The difficulty with this lovely plant is its need for a constantly high level of humidity. Small ones make good terrarium plants. A related plant that looks very similar is Parthenocissus striata. It's supposedly easier to grow indoors than P. stricta, but I never had much luck with it longterm. Sometimes when I see hanging pots of P. stricta for sale, I think they're mislabled, and the plant is actually P. striata -- I'm never sure, but I suspect that is often the case.

WANTED: Looking for Campanula Lactifolia 'Pritchards Var'
Q

I have lots of potted peonies, gingers and maybe a good-sized piece of salvia gaurnitica 'argintine skies' that I'd like to exchange for equal sized plants of campanula lactifolia -- blue or white varities. All of the plants I have to trade are large and in great "saleable" condition. I don't usually trade (I give my plants away), but this time I really, really want lots of this campanula. Please only contact me if you have campanula lactifolia to trade -- ***I only want this particular campanula and no other plnts***. Any takers? If so, please e-mail me. Thanx, joyce
