Just Pollinated, hope they will take!

The vini is (Callosum x Hsinying Rubyweb) that has been open for a while.
The delenatii has just opened up a couple of days ago.

I always wanted something like Madame Martinet, but they are either not offered anymore or distortion of the flower is usually quite terrible.

I am hoping (and dreaming) that something nicer will come out of this, vini being a complex hybrid and thus I'm thinking that the results might be quite diverse, but good one should be "good".
My only concern is that the dele is half album & half standard. This might mess up the color.

I cross-pollinated just to make sure at least one (hopefully, time will tell) will take.

Wish me luck!

Thanks! I will need it.

Now, how long will the wait be for green pod harvest?

I've read that multis (?), brachys and cochlos mature quite fast like more or less around half year, and other groups can go over 10-12 months??

Good luck. Maybe next time use a vini/dunkel variety of delenatii?

Excellent point!
The problem is I don't have dunkel. lol

I have even better vini in low sheath.
It should come into bloom within two months or so.

I will have to look for dunkel pollen donation from someone.
