Another round of guess the spike

It does have some netting, though.

If it is my left nut is on standby to trade.

If it is adductum, I'mma kill it, along with its source. Slowly. With a dull fishing knife. (I hope you're paying attention, Tyler.)

Well my two supposed anitums here are shaking in their little booties… they are at comparable size to yours. I should expect buds too then lol. Unless they refused to cooperate AGAIN.

I’ll take that right Tony lol.

 

[MorandiWine]

Booo! Ye of little faith dear Tony. It IS anitum.

* runs the fishing knife against the strop * Bold words...

Where are you all getting your anitums and adductums? I'm envious as I have been searching far and wide to obtain...

Mt. Prospect has anitum listed for a mint, adductum seems to have completely disappeared from the US.

All, this is great, I haven't seen this vendor yet! Thank you!

It begins.

Can't wait!

Moving steadily, now that temps are warming up.

I bet it is an adductum by looking at the flower sheath.

That's what it looks like to me, but we'll find out soon enough. *sticks the kettle on and continues to polish the fishing knife*

I have a chance to own and grow all multifloral species discovered right now and am lucky to flower all species except ooii and richardianum, hence, I know what the flower sheath of each species looks like. Hope i bet wrongly this time, but…..

I've flowered anitum and adductum both and I'm inclined to agree. I'll happily give it a home if it doesn't meet expectations

Yes, anitum is darker, but joining to Tony, I don t care if adductum or anitum.Both are slow growing, hard to keep plant, so congrats on growing and budding!

I lost my adductum a couple of years ago and have found it impossible to replace, anitum is somewhat readily available if you're willing to pay and seems to grow a little easier.

Yes, agree, i lost my adductum, too, but anitums go well...I can t find adductum, too.

 

[tnyr5]

* shrug* can't say it was hard to grow, but it only has one flower. That could be because I've been growing it like I would grow anitum lol.

 

[tnyr5]

The suspected adductum continues to rise.
