Button LW cactus Lophophora fricii PP 400 Viesca/Parras 20 fresh seeds
$19.99
SHIPPING OFFERED
This listing is for 20 seeds of Lophophora fricii cactus locality Viesca/Parras, Coahuila, Mexico. These are new season, fresh seeds as of 2024. Genuine Viesca/Parras genetics with Pavel Pavlíček's field collection number PP 400, limited quantities. This locality is known for white-flowering plants (standard fricii has light pink to magenta flowers).
Lophophora fricii is a variable, large-growing Mexican species with a restricted distribution (it occupies the smallest area in its native habitat of all the Loph. species) and is perhaps the most beautiful in the genus. Popular in Japan and Thailand, it continues to be the focus of selective breeding efforts where many amazing cultivars have been developed and named.
Maintaining the genetics of the many localised forms of the species is a popular pursuit among growers as plants from different populations often look unlike each other in terms of rib structure and general morphology with slight differences in skin colour as well.
The first 3 photos show plants in habitat at Viesca/Parras and the last 2 photos are an example of my prior test germination of seeds where a 95% germination rate was achieved (the last photo is after I applied a top dressing).
Buyers are advised to use a fungicide - I recommend Captan - when sowing these seeds to optimise germination and seedling survival.
Printed instructions on successful germination included with purchase.
Check out my other LW, LK and LF seed listings, I have a whole heap of different localities for purists looking to maintain distinct genetic lineages including ones extinct in habitat.
$3.60 flat rate domestic shipping with tracking. I always combine post at the $3.60 flat rate if you buy multiple items.
