Fred Stone passed away in July 2018. His partner, Debbie Ward will still be selling canes.

Sorry I haven't been here in quite some time. Fred's e-mail is fred@hawaii.edu I found out recently that the phone number was not up to date. The new number is 808-769-2404 Hopefully, some of you can get some orders to him now.

All your hard work has really paid off. Your pictures are beautiful.

I've had many reports from people who have grown Earthquake that the variety has a lot of problems in growing it.

Spooky indeed. You have a great sampling of the dark leaf ti. Great job!

Go for it Scott. Maybe you can swap some of your seedling canes with Fred.

Unfortunately, many of the newer varieties and seedlings that Fred has developed are not available as yet in photos. Hopefully this will change in the future.

Sorry for the late reply. I hadn't looked at the forum for a while. My suggestions probably wouldn't work for you. I know ones that do well in Southern California. Every area has types that do better in their areas. I would suggest that you take a trip to the Hilo side and look at Fred's...

Fred Stone is selling ti canes again on the Big Island with the help of Debbie Ward. Fred was badly injured a few years ago after a fall , and could not operate the business for sometime. He has an extensive list of ti cane material including many of his new seedlings. He ships canes. I'm...

This one is always a beauty.

This looks like the Kiwi type that is often offered on the mainland which is derived from tissue culture. It is not as beautiful as the one you can get from Hawaiian cuttings as it has a greatly reduced coloring as far as the red streaking goes.

Nice seedlings. You have to be patient with seedlings as some don't color up for years. At a ti meeting yesterday I saw seedlings that were 3' to 4' and were coloring up for the first time in the four years since germination. Patience is the key. On the other hand, I bought a beautiful bright...

Great job Scott. This is a very valuable reference to those who are buying ti plant canes. It helps to avoid buying duplicates because of multiple names.

Nice presentation Scott!

Sorry I'm so late in answering. I was in the Pacific Northwest and went on an Alaskan cruise. I got home a few days ago and just now looked at this forum. We have around 25 members or so. There is a core group that go to all the meetings, usually around 15 or so. The others only show up when...

Southern California Ti Society - June Meeting Our next meeting is on Sat. June 6 at 10:00 at the home of Greg Haines and John Cressey. Bring the usual things you bring including a folding chair if needed. If you haven't been to Greg and John's home before, it is a must to see. Greg Haines...

Interesting. Any roots yet on these extensions?

I like the ones that throw lower branches to make a bushy ti. Who sells this cultivar?

Thanks for the info on the amount of sun for good coloration. I brought one of these back from Florida and have yet to plant it.

Nice one!
