Pollen Bank Criteria

Some of the pollen donated to the pollen bank will be stored for protection of the species. The rest will be available to members for hybridizing purposes.

The person receiving pollen must be a subscribed member of BGI in good standing.

Pollen will be available as follows: 3 packets of different pollen per member every 3 months. A small fee to cover envelope and postage is all that is charged.

People who donate pollen to the pollen bank will have priority over non-contributors.

Seed Bank Criteria

Some of the seeds donated to the seed bank will be stored for protection of the species. The rest will be available to members.

The person receiving seeds must be a subscribed member of BGI in good standing.

Seeds will be available for many crosses of brugmansia. Quantities will be limited to 3 different crosses per member every 3 months. A small fee to cover envelope and postage is all that is charged.

There will be 8-10 seeds per package of named crosses, 10-15 seeds per packet of unknown crosses, depending on the quantity of seeds available.

It is very important to mark all seedlings with the hybridizer's name and give them credit for the cross.

Please take note that brugmansia seedlings do not bloom true to the parents.

Seeds will be available from time to time of rare crosses and will be subject to availabilty.

People who donate to the seed bank will have priority over non-contributors.
