Hi Scott,

I'm very interested in your crafted scolymia, how they look like after one or two years? Thanks

Okay, here are some of the latest pics of our grafted Scolys. As you can see, they are all healing up well (except for an area of denuded tissue on one of the specimens, unrelated to the cut area. No evidence of true grafting yet, although one of the "Warpaint"/"Green Apple" pieces appears to be doing something interesting. Again, we're looking for more than just two independent halves of different specimens healing up independently...This phenomenon is especially evident in the one that we left a large deliberate "gap" between the halves.

So I don't know if we are there quite yet. Only time will tell... Regardless, it's pretty interesting! We'll keep you posted!
