Catopsis ID

Is it C. beteroniana?

Lim,

where did you get it from? If i had to hazard a guess i would say beteroniana, but the Catopsis genus is very hard to differrentiate (spelling haha?) to an untrained eye such as myself.

 

[Clue]

Differentiate.

I don't think that most Catopsis are easy to find anyways, so I'd say that it's C. beteroniana.

Nice Catopsis...

You really ought to try to self-pollinate your flowers. Catopsis seed makes great trading material...

Happy Growing,

Brian.

I got this Catopsis from Taiwan nursery as C. beteroniana. I doubt its identity because it is not really powdery. May be because of my growing condition?

Lim,

You have a good point there....

It could quite possibly be Catopsis floribunda instead. Usually, there's at least a little "waxy powder" regardless of growing conditions on C. beteroniana.
