: Hi Ted,
:
: I have changed servers and I cannot send mail with the old one, though I
can
: receive until the end of the month, so I am writing to you directly.
:
: Any (means ALL) sansevieria can be propagated from a leaf cutting, grown
into
: a plant that can flower and fruit. They are all self pollinating. If you
leave
: them alone, that is what you will mostly get, that is, the same plant.
Though
: sansevierias cross-pollinate very easily, if left alone they will mostly
self.
: So, it is very likely that the seedlings sent by Ed Eby are true S.
patens.
:
: As correctly stated by Hermine, Ed Eby found the plant in a miserable
state in
: Koko Crater, Hawaii, thus saving it for all of us. He  immediately
distributed
: to all his friends. Note that there are no sansevierias in Hawaii, they
were
: simply planted there. I disagree with Hermine though, as far as seedlings
are
: concerned. They look exactly like the offsets that come from leaf
cuttings.
:
: Feel free to relay this to the group.
: Thanks, Juan
