New gigantifoliums

[polyantha]

Hi everyone!
Santa brought these gigantifolium siblings a little earlier, because snow is coming. In three days from Taiwan to Switzerland (with CITES and Phyto control). He must have some frickin' fast reindeers!

Best wishes
Yanik

Really, REALLY nice plants you got there. I guess santa has updated his reindeers to newer editions, with special abilities to teleport.

I will use them as mother plants. I do not like the primaries so much, but if my kolos bloom I will make a cross and send the seedlings to you :rollhappy:

My other two gigs I have for many years are a little bigger, so I am not quite sure if they are already blooming size.

Good to hear! Once gigs make good roots they can speed up like crazy. If you have a healthy plant they can go from new growth to flowering size growth in no more than two years. And these growths are big. A friend of mine told me that gigs collected in asia can reach 150cm (60in) leaf span.
