Druryi Surprise

[DrLeslieEe]

I’m stoked again. My multigrowth druryi ‘Bernice’ is showing two buds!!

Oh, congrats...i have no success with this.Any culture tips? I saw 2 pics about habitat.In the first pic the plant stood on a bald rock exposed to full Sun, surrounded with burned-out grass.In the second pic there was a flower stem with flower WITHOUT any leaf , there was a running fire there a little time ago, as the report said.

It’s grown warm and hot in summer and cool somewhat drier (never dried) in winter. Under high intensity light at 3000 fc.

we await the arrival.

Can't wait to see it!

 

[DrLeslieEe]

It took over a month to open the first flower. The second flower is just opening, kinda green lol.

Leslie, wait and see what happens with the colour. Congrats to flower these two guys in the end.

Just beautiful

 

[NYEric]

Nice. The one thing I don't like about druryi's is that they need so much plant to bloom.

I think the bloom is beautiful dressed in green!

Congrats, very nice. There was a time when species was thought to be extinct from the wild.

Oh wow. How completely wondrous to have two! Will you pollinate? Hoping for more/better photos away from the fake light….

 

[Greenpaph]

Beautifully grown!

Not sure if I will pollinate.

I’ll take some pics in natural light soon.

As promised, several photos in natural sunlight:

Wow~ such a unique looking species. gotta love druryi.
I wonder what babies druryi x armeniacum might make?

 

[Happypaphy7]

Nice. The one thing I don't like about druryi's is that they need so much plant to bloom.

and their rambling growth pattern. and a smallish flower. I would need a bunch over the leaves.

 

[BrucherT]

Gorgeous.
