Forbidden Hybrid
« Thread Started on Jan 5, 2008, 11:29am »

Not revealing the parents of this hybrid, the evidence of highland species adapting to warm climate conditions is strongly suggested that nurseries should grow MORE seed originals over retarded tc clones.

Hi Michael!

Is there some pervillei in it? pervillei x sibuyanensis?

Hi all:

I'd go for a rajah hybrid with ventricosa! whatever it is. Nice plant.

We have some (someone) who tends to be a crybaby with regards to exclusivity of some species. But it will be a very common thing when we see "exclusivity" of species being used in breeding more often than not. Look at N. burkei, it is starting to get less rip-off expensive now. N. rajah is getting cheaper (well the tc clones are, a first!) as more people are looking away from them and seeking other MORE sought-after species, hybrids!

N. rajah has flowered on three occasions twice in the US and one somewhere else, to my knowledge. The plants were none of BE origin. Two were confiscated plants smuggled and sent to rescue centers for breeding, whatever, one may be an older original from a non- BE/AW source.
But this seedling has no rajah in it.
Perhaps as this plant matures, it will be disclosed as more hybrids of this rare species will be created.

I think we might see some characteristics when these produce uppers. Until then its just a rarity.

There have been numerous attempts in making super rare hybrids. I have received seeds from some who have and others willing to produce characteristics of notable species to be incorporated in hybrids. Amazingly most of the paired parents are common things such as ventricosa, sibuyanensis, truncata and currently seen N. sp. Viking!
Recently N. macrophylla has flowered and I bet we'll soon be seeing macrophylla hybrids out there soon.

Well, my ventricosa x jacquilineae seedlings are still tiny. How long have you been growing that?
