Ruben Resendiz Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hi everybody I have a D.falconeri that acquired a month ago, began to grow very well but at the moment is producing the floral bud, this specie is not self-pollinated right, did you recommend me that I cut the flower to not spend energy. Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) Hello Ruben, despite not owning this CP i own friends who have petiolaris complex plants (of which D. falconeri is part) and second observations of them, i tell you that since the plant is healthy let nature take its course, but if you notice anything wrong with falconeri, abort flowering. Note: If you choose to let it bloom not forget to post pictures of her flowers, OK. Best regards, Rodrigo Edited May 22, 2013 by Rodrigo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel van den Broek Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 A healthy plant should have no problem flowering, just make sure it gets a fly or feed it a little if in a tank. Yes, you need two plants in flower to get seeds but it's still a nice flower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards, Rodrigo Hi Rodrigo Thanks for your answer, let's see what happens I'll take the risk and of course I'll take a lot of macro photos of this flower, =). A healthy plant should have no problem flowering, just make sure it gets a fly or feed it a little if in a tank. Yes, you need two plants in flower to get seeds but it's still a nice flower Hi Marcel thanks for your recommendations, I didn't grow this plant in a tank, I let grow in my garden cause I live in tropical zone, the min Temp is18°C (64°F) and max Temp is 32°C (90°F) with >60%HR all the time, so I think this plant can grow without any special treatment, and this plant catch a lot of insects by itself, I'll let grow the course of the flower and let's see what happens. Thanks So much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petiolarissean Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 It is misconception that petiolaris form can't self pollinate or hybrids can't be sterile. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
