U. humboldtii x quelchii

[Martin Hingst]

Hi,

my first flower of this quite lazy hybrid. Not at its best already, but not that often seen in flower. I have placed it in a sunny spot now, so maybe the next one will colour up more nicely I'll let you know







Regards

Martin

Hi Martin,

Wow, we need more utric pics like these! Do you have any tips to make this hybrid flower? I got one in the mail a couple weeks ago.

Thanks!

Thanks Jeff

To be honest, I was waiting for years to see it flower, so no flowering guide here, sorry

One thing I have changed recently is a good dropdown in night temperature (see my cooling thread here ). I would say this is at least helpful.

Here a pic of the whole plant this morning, in an 8cm pot.



Good luck with your newbie

Martin,
Those are excellent, clear photos! And a gorgeous flower too....
Thanks for sharing it with us all!
Happy Growing,
Brian.

Thanks Brian but the next flower will be even more beautiful. Unfortunately, I am likely to miss it because of my vacation. So here a pic taken today, to show what it looks like when grown in better light conditions. Maybe the last one

Beautiful photos and flowers!
You must be vacationing somewhere very nice to leave such beauty behind! I hope you have found a good caretaker!

Thank you for sharing!
