New arrival!

And another! Been wanting this one for so long...

And P. moranensis 'Huahuapan' has begun flowering again. The emarginata flower had a bit of pollen, so I put it on this guy, and I took pollen from this one and put it on the ANPA A

New "ANPA A" flower open, hopefully to be crossed with moranensis 'Huahuapan'

Combo!

And a pair of caerulea flowers. Had a bunch on the two blooming plants, but never more than one or two at a time open.

And my first hybrid blooms again! Hopefully the other two clones follow suit soon...

All 3 clones in the same pot (will have to separate them soon so I can keep track)

Lovely. I haven’t grown this one; thought it was the same as rectifolia but it’s quite distinct from Mine.

Some people told me this plant doesn't stand out...some people I simply cannot see eye to eye with...

New arrival! The hybrid potential thrills me...

And speaking of hybrids, one of my 5 most recent starting to get a little more size (need to get back to feeding them though, that might help).

Hoping I might finally get 'Rose' to bloom this year...and maybe the white flowered form if I'm lucky...

[hcarlton]

Still a ways yet from blooming, but at least I've got a small army going...

[heywhathuh]

How old is that pumila, and where did you get the 'rose'?

Thanks!

 

[Bob Beer]

Here’s my latest hybrid to flower: “Fake Weser” x cyclosecta. I’m thinking of back crossing it with cyclosecta to get more purple in the leaf. It’s interesting how the cyclosecta’s purple and the Fake Weser’s pink leaf seem to almost cancel each other out. The pink flower is the Fake Weser.

In that photo, maybe 2 months if that? Though it hasn't gotten much bigger since; they are a small species. I don't recall where I got 'Rose' offhand, not sure if it's anywhere in my notes either (which would be buried anyway as it was a few years ago).

Bonjour

BOB

your first picture seems to be a x 'Weser' not the "fake weser" (x'Sethos') .

your second your hybrid ?



jeff

 

[Bob Beer]

It’s very similar but not real Weser; on real Weser the white line is much cleaner and more distinct. Here is real ‘Weser’

Also the petals on real ‘Weser’ are wider, so that they overlap slightly.

[Bob Beer]

Oh - yes, the second is my hybrid.

[jeff 2]

for me these 2 are x 'Weser' ,like this

or mine



after, everything, is a question of the nature of the moranensis and ehlersiae used.
but if we use species type in both cases it seems to me that petals are not overlapping so why a hybrid would be with

a 'fake weser' for me is a x'Sethos'

New P. emarginata flower will hopefully have let me cross it with sp. Tonala "ANPA A;" the reverse already seems to have taken.
