Thanks guys,

Remember this one from last year around this time?

Here are a few pics of that same Mexi-Ping from earlier today.

U should really make your P. agnata x heterophylla into a documented cross cause it is completely stunning and im literally amazed at its shape and color I NEED ONE!! Lol lol
Absolutely beautiful even the flower is remarkable :)
U should deff make this into a cult. Mex-ping this should have your credit given to creating such a Beauty of a ping!
Its the first one I've ever seen...so idk if its already been claimed by someone in a cp book for cultivated plants..but if it isn't it sure should be!

It's exciting and encouraging to see the recent interest in Mexi-ping flower pollination and the possibility of new seed grown clones, here on this forum.

Wanted to share some pics of some of my seed grown P agnata x colimensis plants that are now flowering.

This one has some of the characteristics from the P. agnata mother, mainly the leaf coloring and a highly scented flower.

It's nice to know that the scented flower traits can be passed on to the hybrid offspring.

The one thing that all of these flowers have in common is the long nectar spur from the P. colimensis father.

The rosette showing coloring from the P. agnata mother.

Here is another pot with two P. agnata x colimensis clones, with the top flower showing more colimensis traits and the lower flower leaning more towards the agnata end of the spectrum.

This flower just began opening yesterday and isn't quite fully open yet.

Once again, both of these flowers have the longer nectar spur from the colimensis pollen donor.

The rosettes show less coloring from the mother, but the plant on the right has the flatter, diamond shaped leaves of colimensis, while the plant at left carries more agnata traits in its rosette.

It's interesting...the mixing and matching of traits from the two species parents.

I was trying to place the familiarity of the aroma of this scented P. agnata x colimensis flower.

23219793325_18df84ac81_c.jpg


Then it finally came to me; a smell that has been etched into me since childhood...the fragrance of grape flavored Kool-Aid, grape juice or grape popsicles.

22851942869_9dd8fc62b0_c.jpg


If you like the smell of grape popsicles...you'll love this.
