N. hedraeanthus luteolentus x Fairy Chimes (tetraploid) and N. hedraeanthus luteolentus x (Ballygowan x N. viridiflorus)

   

These seedlings are flowering after three years for the first one and after five years for the second group. One seedling of the second group has a pollen fertility of lower than one per cent. The others are infertile.

  1. Very imaginative cross Theo. From pictures it seems that stem length favours ‘Fairy Chimes’. Lovely miniatures but such a pity about the sterility.

  2. Some unusual hybridizing Theo. You are always coming up with something new and different. Inspirational for all of us. Keep up the good work.
