Phrag besseae

JC94030 · Apr 11, 2011

Never saw a bessease I didn't like.
Here is one from OZ. Nice shape, I think. It is on the small/medium side.
NS: 8cm. Petals: 3.2cm.
Three views of the same clone.
I quite like it. [hope not to reignite the linebred vs natural besseae]

Luckily a besseae hybrid is recovering from repotting in my parents greenhouse and I know a nursery that sells both regular besseae and besseae flavum.

Very nice one!

Is this from the latest besseae batch from OZ?

JC94030 · Apr 12, 2011

No, this is not from the latest batch. This is "Big Bob" X "Colossal".
The latest batch are still small, and I think they need a year or two to show their potential. I have seen a couple flowering but on very small plants.
