    Well, the waggie is flowering again, and it would be nice to get some seed, its a female plant, so i'm looking for a male to pollenate it.
    Any chance of some trachy pollen anyone.

    I have a small fortunei thats flowered for the first time this year, and its also female.

    Does anyone grow a male plant?

    :( None of my Trachys are old enough to flower, maybe in ten years or so!
