It's a good season! Another flower

Holy moly. This is a first - my Judith Finn is sending up a spike.

I have three questions for my peeps here on the board.

1) anyone know if this hybrid is sterile or fertile?

2) anyone know if it's (like Miranda) just one sex, and if so, which?

3) wanna breed? (Temping....but, no! ....ok, what movie, what movie?)

My Judith finn is in spike right now too. Welcome to the club, my plant is male.

Oh and you can expect to get around 3-5 spikes before it goes back to pitchers.

WILLOW!

Go Kahnli, go Kahnli, it's your birthday, go Kahnli!

Now you HAVE to go to the NECPS show.

Oh, don't worry. I will be there...

I believe Judith Finn is a mix of clones so anything is possible. I haven't heard of any successful parenting.

I've never seen nor heard of a female JF.

Thanks guys,

So it is likely male, which is fine.

Fertility is doubt, though. I will have to find someone with a female that doesn't mind doing some test pollination (I'll do it myself if the flowers open & ripen in time to put some pollen on my camp).
