A hybridisation experiment 2010
Why
use Chamaecereus?
It
is remarkable - if you compare the size of the plant with the size of the
blossom:
The blossom is HUGE! ...and has a nice colour.
Other advantages: It is small and blossoms early, you see the results of your
experiments soon,
it is easy to grow.
The seedlings appearance reaches from chamaecereus-like to larae-like - at least
now
and grafted on 2 different stocks.
The parents:
Mother plant chamaecereus, pollen from L. larae,
blossom in june,
sown about 20 seeds in july, grafted end of july,
seedlings pictures: end of september
Chamaecereus silvestrii
* Lobivia larae
