Phrag. warszewiczianum

Seems pretty happy this year. It’s from that strain that Ecuagenera grows.

I’ve been noticing that the long petal Phrags. Species and hybrids seem to both grow better and flow better in smaller pots. To the point where when repotting it appears better to trim roots to make the tighter pot fit than to let the root mass directly influence the pot selection.

Others may have known this, but you didn’t tell me!!!!

Absolutely right Rich. I have had a habit of over-potting and noticed that some
Phrags. do like a tighter pot. Good observation and a very nice gh shot!

Rich, this sounds as if you were a very successful businessman.

Ya. I’m hoping to empty my accounts fast enough that I just run out as I take my last gasps for air….

Well on my way!
