Cephalotus follicularis “UC Davis” XL

*Plant in photos is the exact plant you will receive.

Did you know that all “UC Davis” clones originated from my mother plant? In 2012, I obtained an unnamed Cephalotus from the UC Davis Botanical Conservatory, and henceforth, named it my “UC Davis” plant. This is a well established crown division from the original Best In Show award winning plant.

This clone was propagated via crown, leaf, rhizome, or root division in May 2022. Growing in pH neutral Grodan Grow Cubes (Rockwool) within a 2.63'' square by 3.5" deep plastic pot. All plants reside in 1020 nursery flats that are flooded with rainwater 1/4-1/2” deep. The trays are then allowed to dry completely between watering cycles. Plants are growing indoors under 5500-6500K full spectrum white LED lighting (12 HRS. NOV-JAN, 14 HRS. FEB-APR/AUG-OCT, 16 HRS. MAY-JUL), where temperatures fluctuate seasonally between 55-72F (+/-3F) night and day, with ~60% RH during summer months and ~30% RH during winter months. Fed MaxSea Acid Formula Plant Food 1-2x per month. Dormancy observed.
