Re: [SANS] Sansevieria pollination

Forwarded from Juan Chahinian:  Juan new address is Chahinian@aol.com

I mentioned that all Sansevierias are self pollinating (should have said) but
not necessarily fertile.  Agreeing with hermine, two come to my mind: One is
Sansevieria sulcata, which I strongly suspect is a hybrid.  I have tried
countless times to self it with no success.  The other, as I mentioned before,
is the ubiquitous (in Florida) S. longiflora, on which as I also mentioned,
have never seen a seed.

Also, I should remark that the seedlings look the same as the offsets of a
leaf cutting for S. patens only.  Other plants may or may not.  Usually more
juvenile forms are seen in seedlings than offsets.   Juan
