Those little 'brom dome's' are cute..sorry could'nt resist

Even similar shape, color pots.

Perhaps siamese twins,separated at birth ?
But,that Is Really unusual,...to have two not very common plants of a not often collected genera,grow the same,and even have similar pots! woooo...
Spooky!

If you'll notice in each photo, the 7th plant on the left in row 13 from the top, the lower right leaf of each plant even has the same wierd tiny spot. :-)

Their cousin:

Looking at both of your palnts, mine has a very very longgggg way (^_{{gwi:469290}}

Hi Gonzer - LOL - I agree - twins.
Here are a couple of stragglers:

Hey Chis, your last pic could be another one, Deuterocohnia (Abromeitiella) lorentziana,
the bigger brother.

Hi Stephania,
yes - it is bigger and whiter but the label you see is what it came with. How do I tell the difference? I seem to remember that A. l. has green flowers as well. Seems to be doing ok anyway - despite being a bit overpotted (in a fit of optimism!).

Best regards

Derek Butcher (Uncle Derek) wrote an article about this tiny brom complex.

Here is a link that might be useful: Uncle Derek Says : Deuterocohnia

Thanks again stephania - until it flowers i'm confused but...
the leaves look more like A. lotteae and it came from someone with a lot of ISI plants - back in 2003 the ISI released A. lotteae ISI 2003-8 http://www.huntington.org/BotanicalDiv/ISI2003/catalogindex.html
and that looks more like it - of course the flowers will tell but that may not even be this year ;-(

Oh well - interesting plant anyway.

Best regards

Chris

Chris, suppose you may not know that I had got Deut. lotteae and also
silver leaves Deut. lorentziana from Huntington months ago
and posted some pics in this forum.

Here is a link that might be useful: Deuterocohnia from HBG

Deut. (Abrom.) lorentziana green form, from Bill Baker,
which bloomed in my collection last year.

Deut. (Abrom.) lorentziana (? )silver grey , shorter leaves form, from Bill Baker.

Deut. (Abrom.) lotteae, from Huntington, arrived here and bloomed in April 2007.
{{gwi:469295}}

Deut. (Abrom.) brevifolia var. brevifolia from Tarrington Exotic in AUS.

Deut. (Abrom.) brevifolia var. chlorantha from Tarrington Exotic in AUS.

Comparing Deut. (Abrom.) brevifolia v. brevifolia, on the left,
with Deut. (Abrom.) lorentziana, green form, on the right.
{{gwi:469297}}

Most of them grow quite well here in my spiny collection,
except the silver grey form of D. lorentziana which seem to be better at drier site.
{{gwi:469298}}

Wow - so you ahve one or two then! Mine does look nearest to your A. lorentziana green form and judging by the size at which yours flowered i may be lucky this year.

Many thanks for posting the pics again.

Best regards

Chris

In our Country , It is very difficult to obtain this , I envy everybody very much

Hey, 'spiny' friends,
If you have not yet done so,go to the FCBS site and
select the'Uncle Derek Says'index,and then his article on xDeuterocairnia 'Lenny',(#142). There is a photo there of a cross between a D.brevifolia and Pit.hartwigii that is in bloom,and has the best of features of both parents.
Very interesting.
