Thats a beauty but they are sold out now on it.

PS any extra pollen??

Maida,

I am so jealous!! I bought one of those last year too from Telos and recently mine lost all its roots so I pulled it up, hopefully in time to save it and did my best to clean it off but it hasn't set any new roots yet. My bulb has shrunken a bit but is still hard and I don't detect any rot. You obviously did something right that I didn't do!! I am dismayed that I couldn't grow this bulb properly as it came to me with nice roots as I'm sure yours did.
Looks like you've got plenty of pollen so you can have some fun with it and good luck picking a suitable partner!

Wow what a beauty. I'm sure anything you cross it with will be stunning.

Hi Maida,

Have you considered green flowers like 'Lemon Trumpet' (originally known as 'Nr. 0089', registered as Concordia and trademarked as Luxor), 'Jade Serpent,' or cybister 'Evergreen'?

Best,

Blanca

Yes Blanca,
I have Evergreen and Green Dragon blooming today and will cross on both of them.

Maida,

Do you know if these are just seedlings and each one will bloom differently or was there a selected seedling that was further propagated? I do hope mine looks like yours, the green star is brilliant!

I noticed that there was no picture of this cross on her website at the time but there was a picture of the reginea x neopardinum.

Donna,
As far as I know they are seedlings and there could be differences in the bloom. She has a picture of the cross on her web site and if you blow it up, it does look a lot like mine. Good luck with yours. Remember my offer still stands.
Maida

so beautiful!

Wow! What a gorgeous bloom! This is the kind of flower that amaryllis/hippeastrum growers hope to be blessed with growing. Stunning!
