I have about a dozen Pachypodiums around here... most in a resting state at the moment.
Buds n blooms from the database...
- Pachypodium (Pachypodium sofiense)

More info about the genus (and lots more pictures)...

It would be fun to see pictures of your plants.
Baja_Costero said:Yes, photos please!
The leafier ones around here at the moment (today's photos)...
This one stays leafy year round
Three dormant plants. Only the first two get overhead protection from our winter rains.
And finally my crests are just starting to wake up

Baja_Costero said:
The 7th photo is an unknown Madagascar plant with yellow flowers.
I am impressed by the variety of plants you have, and they look really well cared for. It's pretty crazy that damaged saundersii is still alive. Those plants didn't do well here (though they lasted several years) because our climate is so cool and moist.
What kind of light are all those Pachypodiums getting? I'm guessing most come in for the winter and go outside for the summer.
Smotzer said:I think it has a lot to do with the type of "soil" I grow them in.
Baja_Costero said:Congratulations on some really nice looking greenhouse plants. There must not be a lot of other people with these plants in New Jersey, let alone folks who have grown them from seed.
