April meeting

[eleontie]

Aaron,

I'll post a picture of the one I have tonight. Mine is rusty-colored (maybe because it's been under water for a long time). It might be a different, and more valuable, species.

What Viktor has is probably a unique ludwigia/cryptocoryne hybrid with a hint of rotala in it. Totally worth the $100.

Eugen is probably right. And I think it was collected in some remote area on some unknown island. The island was the only place where this weird but exceptionally attractive truly aquatic plant could be found, but that piece of land is under water now due to global warming. It is such a sad story.

[JLW]

I will be bringing:

2 Bags of ULTRA RARE Tank Grown Anacharis.
1 Bag of Ceratophyllum demersum var "Green." (as opposed to all the other types you've seen). (Tank Grown)
1 Bag of Cabomba caroliniata "Purple," which has never really looked all that purple to me, just dark greenish. (Tank Grown).
1 Big bag of Rotala "indica," which I know isn't really indica,
1 Bag of Dwarf Sags. They only get to like 3" tall, max for me.
a few bags of assorted Cryptocorynes. Not sure of the species: they were given to me by someone, and TOOK off in my tanks. I've had to seriously thin them down (I'm leaving like 2-3 plants). There are at least two types in there, but they just kind of tangle together ... so. Crypt. Grab Bag.

Some Cryptocoryne parva for Takadi. $500 a stem.

[JLW]

BTW: if anyone has and can bring some Hygro. pinnatifida -- I have a friend who wants a bit.

[Aaron]

Yup, that's it Viktor.

All joking aside, if you get the C. hudoroi you will be one of two people to have this variety in the US.
