Blasted fairrieanum!

[TADD]

Well I just had to say it. My fairrieanum 'Merry Prankster' x 'Kesey' bud has been lost. When I picked it up frommy boss, it had a samll circular brown spot on the outside of the bud, I was hoping it was a small bruise from mishandleing or shipping etc. However it has moved into the whole bud. I sadly snipped it off. There is always next year I guess....

Here is the same clonal from last year from Piping Rock.
