Deadly Weapon Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Have seen this plant sold on Extreme-Plants (misnamed G. violacea x hispidula?) but haven't seen any information about this hybrid on CPPF. Is this hybrid real? Edited August 8, 2011 by Deadly Weapon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando Rivadavia Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 The correct name is G.hispidula, not G.hispida. This is an African species of section Genlisea, whereas G.violacea is from section Tayloria and is Brazilian. I've never heard of this hybrid being made and I don't see it on the CP Photo Finder. I would be surprised if it is possible at all and would bet this is probably just a case of mislabeled plant. Best wishes, Fernando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renef Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 cz-plants is selling the same plants. there is an utricularia hispida, a slip of the pen, i think. i have G. lobata x violacea and has the same flowers as the plants at extremeplants. send them a mail.

renef Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 just had a mail from extreme-plants, it's violacea x hispidula, created in the czech republic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 just had a mail from extreme-plants, it's violacea x hispidula, created in the czech republic. The plant on the photo shown on extreme plants is G. lobata x violacea. I have never heard of a hybrid of G. violacea x hispidula and do not believe. I think it's just dislabeled.

renef Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 hi marcus, you're right. the plant at extreme-plants is g. lobata x violacea. i have the same plant, a soilplug, original from czplants. but czplants also sells genlisea violacea x hispida. send cz a mail, about the hybrid. thanks. rene.

Fernando Rivadavia Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Then it's probably bogus. I truly don't believe it's possible to make any crosses between members of subgen.Tayloria and subgen.Genlisea. And I would not recommend anyone waste their money buying seeds of such claims.
