I just noticed that my jubaeopsis has 3 flowers on it. It set viable seed last year form the first time. cheers..! Sweet! should set some more seeds soon then! I'll take some off your hands if you have too many to handle haha. That Jubaea looks fantastic too! Good placement for a beauty like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
