I believe Annie is out of business; she is deceased.

Thanks a mil. Can't find the place to change whether to accept my own emails back or not - everything's got to be so complicated huh?

So, has anyone ordered from Annie's before ?
I do not like how almost everything she lists, is never in stock.

I have emailed Annie's Magic Garden several times with questions and to purchase other Sansevierias, but haven't got a reply.

Okay back from the blood letting.

First Annies Magic Garden just south of San Antonio, Texas might be worth asking as they do sell this along with many other Sansevieria though at the moment out of stock.

I have put out a feeler to a couple of European sellers, I need to replace mine anyway.

The article Sansevieria sambiranensis by Alain Rzepecky in Sansevieria the ISS journal No.29 February 2013 pages.18-23.

Includes two pictures of the inflorescence one from a freshly collected inflorescence from the herbarium specimen Peter B. Phillipson 2023 MO,1987 This picture of a nice pink inflorescence the other picture is from a plant cultivated in Antananarivo, Madagascar, 2012, this one is red in colour. Note the description says light red flowers yellow fruit.
It grows in lose stones, liassic limestone at the base of the massif of Monongarivo, Sambirano slope.

The article also shows the herbarium dried specimens.
This is an in depth very accurate account of this plants geography, history and description.Alain goes on to say "Whether its genus name seems appropriate or not is of personal opinion".

I lost mine last year my fault too cold. I do know someone in London who got one at the same time that I did I'll ask him if he still has it though I cannot promise anything as he is something of a recluse and does not communicate regularly. I'll email him a dozen times a year then hear nothing and all of a sudden I get a big email.
Well off to give blood then I'll dig that article out.

According to "The Splendid Sansevieria" by J. Chahinian, there seems to be question whether or not the subject plant is a Sansevieria. But whatever it is, it was identified over 100 years ago as a Sansevieria, and it did have carmine red flowers. The plant was found in Madagascar which claims a number of very unusual plants and animals.

YEAH BUT i COULD BE wrong! THIS IS JUST HOW i FEEL ABOUT THE PLANT!

I am not pleased with some of the stuff which passes for taxonomy but I am not a taxonomist, just an observant person.
