I don't think I have, Pat. I would be happy to have any of those in my collection.
One for me, one for you, Jan? :-)

Gorgeous leaf patterns Jan. I too like the plain leaf...well I like them all really. Are they crossed with other species do you know? The first leaf looks similar to cyprium and the third like coum?

Hi Denise, happy new year. This is pure C. pseudibericum, no crossing. I don't know where this breeder gets his seeds from, will ask him. In any case I have bought enough to bring some of them to the CS Wisley sales in April. Within two weeks I will visit him again and buy some more. I hope to get a lot of seeds this year from the 30 I kept as stock plants. I think we will have a lot of seedlings with a great leaf pattern the next few years. Regards, Jan

Jan, are you going to be at CS Wisley in February? As you may know, I will be visiting Tim the 1st week of February and will make the show. It would be nice to meet you too.

Hi Terry, I am sorry, we will be there again in April. We love the Wisley area, of course Wisley Garden as well. However in February the area and the Garden is not very interesting. We have to drive around 1100 km, the ferry and a few days B&B what will cost us 500 Gbp. We prefer to stay longer in April. Regards, Jan

A Happy New Year to you too Jan.
Ooh good to hear that Jan....I think pseudibericum is a lovely species. I've got quite a few plants, with both matt and glossy leaves...but nothing like the ones you've posted. I shall have to make sure I get to Wisley early in April...before they are all sold!
