I have tried downsize on a previous part downsized image to find the forum does not accept it .... but an image fully downsized in one go .... was ok.

Re: Todays photo
Solved it! It was nothing to do with the file size at all, but in the characters used to name the photo. Computers seem to allow any kind of names these days, while they used to prevent it; unfortunately older software like the Forum don't allow certain characters to be used in file names. Thanks Allan for sending me the pic. I'll leave Allan to upload the corrected version.el48tel wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 12:02 pm Paul

No Mike, I have a few hard leaved forms but I don't try crossing them with anything.Herts Mike wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 10:49 am Allan, do you ever do work on the hard leaved varieties, coarctata etc?
I believe the ones I use have a much greter chance of variation in colour, pattern and leaf shape.

Re: Todays photo
todays will be last for a while. I thought that the leaves would be fatter with using H. springbokvlakens.
H.springbokvlakense hybrid X magnifica hybrid cv Black Form
Might be promising though.

Re: Todays photo
Great pictures Allan as always. Thank you for sharing.
I wouldn't have guessed springbokvlakensis was a part of that last hybrid if you hadn't said.

Yes a promising looking plant.
And I'm looking forward to seeing the next .... even if I have to wait a while. Thanks for sharing.
