RL7836 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Carlos, Wonderful pics! Thanks for sharing them. The U. nelumbifolia x nephrophylla hybrid - the nelumbifolia is the seed parent (& nephro is pollen parent)? I've seen some of this cross in the photofinder but each time I try it, I don't get any seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Rohrbacher Posted October 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Jim: Thanks! Ron: The 'mother' is a U. nephrophylla and the 'father' (polen) is a U. nelumbifolia, this hibryd don't produce viable seeds. Ah, these two parents came from Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

RL7836 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Ron: The 'mother' is a U. nephrophylla and the 'father' (polen) is a U. nelumbifolia, this hibryd don't produce viable seeds. Ah, these two parents came from Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Thanks for this information. I find it very interesting how tall your flower stalks are for this hybrid. While cleaning out one of my tanks with a U. nephrophylla x nelumbifolia hybrid (typically place the 'mother' 1st to avoid confusion), I measured the stalk on one of my plants - it was 43" (109.2cm) long! This stalk formed & flowered while growing from a 2.5" (6cm) pot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel O. Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Aaah, nice flowers Carlos, and interesting hybrid. Best regards, Dani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hello, very nice pictures! I really like the U. nelumbifolia x nephrophylla! But your "U. uliginosa" looks like U. lateriflora. Best regards, Nicole 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 ...I measured the stalk on one of my plants - it was 43" (109.2cm) long! Interesting, my flower stalks had a maximum length of 35 cm. Your leaves are bigger too. But your "U. uliginosa" looks like U. lateriflora. I need to see my labels again, thanks. Thanks Daniel.

Daniel O. Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Really nice flowers, most i like the U. tricolor flowers. Best regards, Dani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted November 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks Daniel! Ah, I'm in doubt, the first small 'tricolor' is tricolor or tridentata? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
