Three blooms!
All at 120deg to each other!
But I'll see what the processing brings tomorrow .... it may be binned ... it may be posted.
The flower fully open was an exquisite pink with thin magenta stripe

Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Like buses. You wait around. Then 4 appear simultaneously.
But only one plant could be recorded as a video last evening. That's WIP. More of that later.

(Any dangling labels are for hybridization records.)

Great display Terry. Is the large one the Salmon Orange you've given me seed from?

Thanks Ed
Oh yes .... and it has pollinated a few plants this season and has seeds of its own.

The video I was trying to make last evening.
Yes it is lower quality because otherwise this site won't load it.
Yes it has a copyright mark
Yes it is available without the mark

I couldn't get the video to show any picture.

Downloaded fine and played but no sound or image.
