Nice to see a true farreri in cultivation. How long have you grown them?
Its a first time bloomer, and it showed up with 2 spikes.
its in my garden for 3 years now, and when I baught it it was 3 years old.
The roots are longer than my Fasciolatum ones. But much more thinner.
It grows with a lot of sun, like reginae and some Hybrids.
But till now I ever told I dont have one, because the last ones I had from seedlings or I baught mature, turned all out to be something else.
Have a second one comming it will need a few days more, it will be a little big bigger, this one is only 10 cm high with the flower.
The second one was a compensation of the photo I should last year, where I baught a plant for a lot of money and turend out to be a franchetii,
but the roots are still not nice and so I dont know where the seller have it from. have 3 more seedlings in soil, with 3 years now, waiting if they are true.
When the second one is blooming will pollinate them.
Used the pollen of this one for Henryii and for a pubescens.
Did you see the new hybrid of Frosch Schoko????
It looks really great.
