Tiny
globular bodies are densely covered with interlaced white radial
spines, giving the impression of white "thimbles". Clusters prolifically
to form large mats.
Small flowers, about 12mm long and in diameter, cream-yellow with pinkish or brownish midstripe in early spring.
Extremely hardy, can tolerate full sun, long periods of dryness and light frost (-4° C).
For sale is a packet of 10 seeds.
ALL SEED PACKAGES COME WITH A SET OF SEED PROPAGATION INSTRUCTIONS.
Combined Postage/Shipping:
If
you purchase multiple packets of seeds then they will be posted/shipped
in the cheapest envelope or parcel rate available. What you pay is what
Australia Post charges me, plus a small handling fee to cover packing
materials. Final postage total does depend on the seed varieties
purchased as some species have larger/heavier seeds than others so cost
more to post. I don't automatically charge extra for each purchase and
in many cases a number of packets of seeds can be posted/shipped for
just the one initial postage charge.
To
get combined postage just make each purchase on Ebay but don't press
the 'Pay Now' button after each purchase. Once you have finished buying,
then press the 'Pay Now' button and an option appears at the top that
says 'Request Total'. Press this one and I then get an email to tell me
to combine the items into one invoice for combined postage. I then send
you a final invoice for payment.
Payment Options:
Australian buyers: Paypal, Bank Deposit or Money Order.
International buyers: Paypal is the only payment method accepted.
