FlytrapCare Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 These photos are an update to this thread: http://www.flytrapca...-tc-t15487.html The "Triton x Weinrot" seedling looks almost exactly like the mother plant Triton. Like Triton, it does not seem to take on color easily, so unfortunately it doesn't appear to have inherited any of the anthocyanin carrying traits of the father plant Weinrot. Triton x Weinrot Trichterfalle x Coquillage In addition to having the "fuzzy" arms (commonly called "scaling") as seen in the photo here as "Trichterfalle x Coquillage" was taken out of tissue culture: http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/download/file.php?id=14922 It also has remarkably long teeth (also known as cilia or marginal lashes) as seen in the photo below: To me, this cross looks very similar to Schuppenstiel with slightly longer teeth. It's a nice looking plant :) I've seen quite a few Trichterfalle seedlings now with the long cilia, including "Miss Pimbeche": http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/download/file.php?id=19913 So perhaps Trichterfalle carries the genes for long cilia?

prized Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Good work, but unfortunately too much similar to other clones.. Anyway, MAYBE Dm phalanx should have Trichterfalle as parent plants (I'm not 100% sure), so that would endorse that Trichterfalle carries the genes for long cilia.

FlytrapCare Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Yes, both of these plants are very similar to other clones, so they won't be named nor sold as unique plants. They'll simply be used for future crosses or sold as seed grown plants in the FlytrapStore. Perhaps self-pollinating the Triton x Weinrot flowers will result in some red-colored Triton-like plants :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prized Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Perhaps self-pollinating the Triton x Weinrot flowers will result in some red-colored Triton-like plants :) That will be fun to try. Did you sowed and growed them in-vitro? How many years ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlytrapCare Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Yes, the seeds were sown and grown in vitro. Started in October 2011, I think. Deflasked and potted out May 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
