Gunnera manicata? Any one have a plant or offset to spare? I will buy from you and pay postage! Can't get my gunnera seeds to germinate.

Mike. I really appreciate your offer! I did order a gunners offset online. I am currently nursing it to grow, but it is tough to tell how it will do...
I just might have to take you up on your offer if my purchase does not survive.
Thanks!
ill let you all know the outcome.

Adam, by the way I had bad luck with my banana plant but the Gunnera survived the second winter in the raw. So you can try it in your mild climate easily. Perhaps I'm wrong but I might see gunnera in Toronto city botanical garden at the Lawrence street...
