We have gotten other Cistanthe from NW Native Seeds, Jelitto Seeds, Alplains and Rocky Mountain Rare Plants - all of them as seed except for the accession that came from Alplains in the early 90's. We have grown C. monandra, C. umbellata and C. umbellata var. umbellata Ted Kippling. We have received some of these under the genera Calyptridium and Spraguea so she might want to check under that name as well. "
