« Reply #4 on Dec 3, 2007, 6:56am »http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/modify.gif http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/delete.gif Disappointing. The more I talk with growers though, the more I think that boschiana has a very short window of when it is receptive to pollen. Either that, or the pollen must be collected from the donor at something like hourly or bi-hourly intervals over the course of a couple days, then used.

Perhaps you could introduce yourself in the "Introduction" section so that members can get to know you. http://s3.images.proboards.com/smiley.gif Also, just a reminder, please type in your location under your profile so that members have an idea of where you are from. Thanks.
By the way, can you post a picture of the seed pods of your female N. boschiana? Is it been crossed with boschiana or something else? I'm curious becasue mine is still so small and I want to know how this plant looks like when it's bigger or how their flower/seed pods look like. Thanks.

I have attempted to pollinate it with two different boschianas, N. jacquelinae, N. spatulata and N. xPisacho. (The plant has two spikes that have flowered)
I'll try to post a photo later.

That appears to resemble MT's clone of boschiana. The peristome appears later when the plant starts developing fatter and broader leaves. Their clone is female and so far have been somewhat infertile.

Without going into the gory details of tc clones, there are other tc faults that are also inherent in every single tc clone. These details stand out pretty distinctly. Seed grown originals on the other hand are more difficult to discern.
These do grow somewhat well in warmer conditions, but the fertility of these are questionable. If they had tc'd a large population of these and tc'd them on a lower level, perhaps we might be successful in getting more fertile plants of BOTH sexes instead of just the ONE.
I understand that this sounds very redundant and you've heard it many times before. Oddly, this habit of just making a SINGLE clone persists today.

« Reply #15 on Dec 8, 2007, 10:33pm »http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/modify.gif http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/delete.gif Hi,
I am also having a few N.boschiana from MT. I have a male and female plant. The male flowered earlier this year and I have crossed them with N.veitchii (Lowland) from MT also (seed pod already developing - don't know whether they are fertile or not because the seed pod are very long and small) and now I have a female plant flowering, hope to cross them with N.sanguinea (bright red) from Genting Highland.

This is the Wistuba clone which is questionable as being pure. The BE clone again has different leaves and petiole attachment. I find it very disappointing when you can discern clones of a particular species based on some species flaws inherent in the plant. MORE seed grown stock will correct these issues. but until that day, we can just dream of owning one.

He has been trying to make species seed for a long time, but they never flower at the same time. Every time someone has a boschiana in flower, it seems no one has the opposite gender in flower at the same time.
