after years of waiting for the two to flower simultaneously they finally did. I cross pollinated four flowers each of capensis "broad leaf" and madagascariensis. as a bonus my nidiformis was flowering too. so i have a total of 8 capensisXmadagascariensis seed pods and also 8 capensisXnidiformis flower pods.
so far i mainly see swelling in the flowers which received the capensis pollen. I think it has something to do with the tiny pollen sacks of the nidiformis and madagascar not being compatable with the giant capensis flowers.. but luckily the capensis pollen seems to have worked and i can tell the flowers that got that pollen are (seem to be) developing.. it's been about a week now
now i have a question: which order do the names go in relation to the flower receiving the donated pollen?
like if the nidiformis received pollen from the capensis, would i name that hybrid capensisXnidiformis? or is it the other way around?
