Cybister Rose

10 years ago

Small flower (3.5 to 4 Inches: 8.89 to 10.16 cm), upward facing, seven flowers to a scape. Scape is 18 inches (45.72 cm), Pretty colors. Second scape starting but no leaves yet so I don't know how large they get. To orchid lovers, the shape reminds me a little of australian dendrobiums. - J

    Very pretty Jody. I don't have one but I do have a Rosado and will be interested to see just how they differ when mine blooms.☺☺Donna

    Very nice! And seven flowers! Please show us more pictures when they are all open!

    I think that Rosado and Cyibister Rose are one and the same.
    But I was surprised by the diameter of the flower - for the variety is so much.

    Oleg, I've always wondered what if any were the differences between Rosado, Cybister Rose and Santa Rosa. To my untrained eye, they basically look the same. As I mentioned above, I have one labeled Rosado but it has not bloomed yet and I've never had either of the others.

    Hi Jody,

    She is very pretty and delicate looking. I really like the two tone coloring on her petals :-)))

    I have rosado and Santa Rosa both are new bulbs for me this year. Rosado looks a lot like cybister rose only mine is more pale. The flowers faced upwards also so maybe they are the same? My Santa Rosa has a different shape. The flowers are even smaller than rosado but I like her better. I got 4 seed pods from a new unrooted bulb. They were very tiny pods with the smallest hippi seeds I have ever seen, but they are growing well. All attempts with rosado failed.

    here is Rosado

    and Santa Rosa

    just a week ago I bought small bulb with Cybister Rose tag from local seller. Not sure if it'd blossom this season, but we'll see :-)

    I grow a Rosado too , I've always though it was synonym with Cybister Rose , and emaryllis seems to confirm that. Mine is just flowering now too , but my picture is an old one (2013)

    I like the color of yours. Maybe mine will look better next time. If you cross it let me know how it goes so I will know for next bloom. I didn't get any seeds on the the first try.

    I thought this looked a bit familiar and I have Rosado as well but never made the connection. I did get a chance to harvest her pollen so I may do some crosses with some of my others and see what happens.

    Yes , with that bloom in 2013 I pollinated Evergreen with Rosado's pollen. I get some of the first flowers recently but I've forgotten them quickly !

    Very nice. my Santa Rosa accepted evergreen pollen. I hope the results look similar.

    Here is Cybister Rose today - top down. -J

    Her she is almost fully open. Really pretty -- I can see how she would be very popular as a cut flower. Although the flowers don't open at the same time, they do stay open together. Also the flowers present themselves separately and don't overlap, which you can see in the top down pic. Here are two views to show her off - J

    Wow, this is a stunning display! Congratulations! I nearly purchased one last year but decided otherwise ... oh well :)

  • 10 years ago

    Thank you Carl! Like you, I almost didn't order one, but I had a second chance to order it as a replacement bulb. I'm glad I did. Most probably it will be around next year for you to order - something to look forward to - right :) - J

    Today I pollinate a green mini cybister hippeastrum named "Green Ice" to my Quito and Santa Rosa. Can I hope for a hybrid like this? :D

    Hi Nguyen,

    This sounds like a beautiful combination. Good luck with your cross and please keep us informed.

    Fred
