Second time flowering

Wow, that is so weird, how come the plant is so small? Does it come from a dwarf population or it just appeared among regular sibs?

Nice Russell. Good question from Math though.

Wow! Huge flower on such a short stem! I like this better than a flower on a 3' stem.

I see some interesting compact phrag breeding in the horizon......

WOW!!! Too curly and too green!!!!! I love it!

this was a seedling that came from select parents,no one new what the out come would be,and it would be nice if the crosses made with it would be compact also.
The first flowering was the same size of steam also.

Very nice Russell, i tought it was a selfing of the clone ¨Riopelle¨ wich is also compact. Thanks for sharing

This is one of my favorite Phrag species -- I just love the wavy petal edges.

What will you cross it with, Russell???

that may be possible Denis,I only know that the person I got the seedling from said it was from select parents.Maybe they were sibs of the selfing

I put yellow besseae on it and used its pollen on Andean Fire and Don Wimber

By the way Russell, if, one day, you self it, put aside a flask for me
