Abutilon x suntense
« on: July 16, 2009, 03:55:24 PM »
Hello to you all!

As I'm searching for an Abutilon x suntense and it seems impossible to have a plant in Italy, I thaught that I might buy some seeds.

Does anyone growed it from seed? Some advice?

Thank you very much. ;)

Mad,

I only find this link for the Abutilon x suntense

Will look tomorrow in a German Plantfinder, with nurseries in Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands too.

I received some seed from the SRGC lucky dip seed selection this year but unfortunately I didn't have any success with germinating them. :'(

Mad,

this is the only nursery I find in the German Plantfinder on the continent. All the others are on the British Isles.

When you want the other addresses, please send a PM.

Mad,
The nursery that Uli mentioned is Pieter Zwijnenburg's in Boskoop which is another 100 kms to the west from Hummelo. Be sure to call in advance if you would plan to go there because I know that Pieter Zwijnenburg does not always have Abutilon xSuntense in stock. There are some very interesting nurseries on the way to Boskoop from Hummelo: Hessenhof (Hans Kramer) near Ede and Ploeger near Utrecht both have a huge selection of perennials.
