Echnopsis/Chamaecereus hybrid Tiger Stripe

Post by Sylvia »

Just love this little plant that flowered for the first time this morning. It is only in a 4cm pot.
I love the vibrant colour.

Lovely, Sylvia - only you could get a flower like that in a 4cm pot! :wink: (tu)

I love it too! Got one a while ago, and have flowered it at a small size.

Beautiful Sylvia. My little one of this produced a single flower earlier this year but it wasn't that big!

simply stupendous
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Super. It makes you wonder how many seedlings the hybridisers produce to get the odd good one...

I agree Ralph. Then you have to wait until they all flower to see the results.
