A while back, I crossed U. asplundii with U. jamesoniana (both directions) but only the seeds from the U. asplundii seed parent germinated. Here's two pics of the mother's flowers (seed parent):   .... and a pic of Dad's flower (pollen parent):  I planted seedlings both in netpots (in live LFS) & one on treefern. The one on treefern flowered before the others: Front  Side  Plant (tuber in middle/right of pic - below largest leaf)  The hybrid appears to have grabbed most of it's appearance from the asplundii side. My complete inability to ever produce viable seeds from either selfing or crossing my asplundii clones does lead me to believe that these plants are indeed the hybrid. |

While I would love to trade some seed with you, my experience so far with trading Orchidioides seed over international boundaries has been poor. By 'poor', I mean that 100% of the seeds have failed to germinate. This is from freshly-harvested viable seed - not the guaranteed-non-viable garbage for sale on fleabay - multiple species - multiple tries. In addition, these seed trades were with people in countries much closer than Oz.... |

This is a plant from a cross he did personally, he didn't buy it, and I doubt he'll be interested in selling it either, not to mention shipping out of country is ridiculously costly for only one plant.

The hybrid appears to have grabbed most of it's appearance from the asplundii side. My complete inability to ever produce viable seeds from either selfing or crossing my asplundii clones does lead me to believe that these plants are indeed the hybrid. Based on feedback from people on several forums, the jury is out whether this plant is truly a hybrid. It has been given to a buddy who showed an interest in it. I have several other seedlings whose leaves are staying quite small - will be interesting to see their flowers. |
