dimitar Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) I would question what is Cephalotus "Thomas Carrow" ? I would question what is Cephalotus "Kinglsley"? I would question what is Cephalotus " Hampshire Black"? I would question what is Cephalotus "Queen Marry"?   I would question and those as well:  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cephalotus-follicularis-Charles-Brewer-Rare-Mature-plant-/232003074744?hash=item360475fab8:g:CQIAAOSwuzRXe4mC  What is Cephalotus "Charles Brewer?  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cephalotus-follicularis-Dr-Konig-/232003177223?hash=item3604778b07:g:aNYAAOSwzJ5Xe6be  What is Cephalotus "Dr- Konig"?  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cephalotus-follicularis-Oliver-Gluck-/232003190638?hash=item360477bf6e:g:16UAAOSwZ1BXe6op  What is Cephalotus "Oliver Gluck"?  Those are just named plants after the growers and nothing else..The seller got the plants from Charles Brewer collection or from Dr- Konig or from Oliver Gluk but he automatically rename  them as Cephalotus "Charles Brewer",  Cephalotus "Dr- Konig" or  Cephalotus " Oliver Gluk" that already means named clones not taken froim these 3 peoples collections :)) A shame really as this guy Luis Aaragon did the same with so called Cephalotus Queen Marry, Cephalotus Kingsley and Hampshire Black... in fact all just typical Carniflora plants but under different names.  It is the same if next time I buy Cephalotus  from Corky or from Blocky 71  then I to name it as Cephalotus "Corky" or Cephalotus "Blocky 71"  ... not bad indeed Edited August 2, 2016 by dimitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobile Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 I think that a clone should only have a name if it has a distinct characteristic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 It is a bit mad how big mature Cephs sell badly at a similar price to a miniscule leaf pull of a so called 'named' plant, just because the mature Ceph has been grown in shaded conditions. Maybe I should buy all the large green plants and put them in full sun for a while before dividing them into tiny portions and call them something silly... this time next year I could be a millionaire ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't necessarily be a millionaire, but you could make yourself a lot of money, even by being honest about it! Â Go for it. Don't forget my sage business advice though, I'll settle for 10%Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilacina Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 And if the plants are named after a special person the names should at least be typed correctly:  Carow,Gluch  If not they´re of less value than they anyway are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yossu Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 OK, not wanting to be left out, I'm offering some exceptionally rare miniature Sarra hybrids for sale. These were grow by me from seed, in my own greenhouse, and are so rare that they don't even have names! For identification purposes, I will refer to them as "Mixed hybrids" which tells you how special they are.  These miniature Sarras are so rare that they are currently only about 1cm high, which uninformed people might mistake for immature seedlings, when they are in fact hugely rare miniatures. Given time they will grow into even more rare giant miniatures!  So, do I hear any bids for the first plant, a Sarracenia Yossuii? Let's start at £100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimitar Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Another example from today: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Cephalotus-black-form-Martin-Stockl-/222210910220?hash=item33bccd680c:g:dFUAAOSwimdXpBXE  Cephalotus black form "Martin Stöckl"  - as it is written by the seller on eBay, it already means named clone, not Cephalotus from Martin Stöckl...  Nex time instead Cephalotus 'Eden Black' I will put one for sale labeled as Cephalotus black form "Stephen Morley"...or instead Cephalotus "Big Boy" I'll put the rich title Cephalotus giant form "Fred Green"   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjw Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Thanks, Joachim At least Thomas Carow is honest and tell the truth,...

dimitar Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) In the case of Charles Brewer Maybe you know about that exactly as you've sold some of them before in here CPUK.lolol   I got the plant from Charles Brewer exactly labeled as "typical" and of course I sold the plant labeled as "typical" from Charles Brewer, not Cephalotus "Charles Brewer" - there is huge difference.  I didn't know u prefer I to label the same clone as Cephalotus "jjw"...probably next time.  .http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=57448  And  because I refused to sell  for you Cephalotus Coal Mine Beach at low price, you are trying to behave arrogantly towards me many times  but I don't mind... good luck!  However, If u have to say something regarding " named clones after the growers", please do it, otherwise your behaviour is not helpful at all and it is pointless.
