Or whatever the preferred name now is.
These 4n clones seem to be widespread now and this is the first of two I bought last year from Popow.
Both are well established with several growths.
I lost another one last year due to insufficient watering over winter.
It grows in sphagnum in a clay pot and is kept damp all year round.
Rainwater and Akerne's rain mix feed at every watering are giving good results.
Summer outside seemed to suit it well and four new growths were produced in early autumn.
Winter is spent in the kitchen under some supplementary lighting.
I just have to be vigilant for slugs as they seem to like the newly opened buds ( the 2nd flower is damaged).
The first photo is under lights and the second natural light outside.
These selections have gone through several generations of line breeding and have nice flat large flowers and appear to be much easier and more vigorous than the 2n forms,
