Not sure about this one, seed parent was the same A distichantha but I'm thinking the pollen parent was C 'Ti' but it could be a xBillmea although that pink is more likely from C 'Ti' than B distachia.

Hi Bromadams

What an interesting, crazy, mixed up, lot of kids! The first and the last ones have got me guessing.

The possibilities of bigeneric crosses are just mind boggling and I hope you get something worthwhile for your efforts. Will you please post some more pic's of their path to maturity?

Thanks for the interesting pic's, all the best, Nev.

Here is a better picture of what I now think is a xCryptmea. The reason I think it has Cryptanthus as the pollen parent is the thick and solid leaves that are very succulent like. I have 2 others that look similar, including one that is quite a bit bigger, but this one has the most pink. The good news is that the bigger one has enough of a tank that it looks like it holds water all the time and looks quite healthy. If that is true then they probably won't die off like my xCryptbergias did. Still, I think I'll treat them as terrestrials and put them in bigger pots.

I still have one more seedling from the Billbergia seed parent that confounds me. It has an odd upright form with narrow leaves and I always expected it to die, but it hasn't. Maybe in 6-9 months I'll figure that one out.

Could this still be half neo marmorata clone? I never expected zonation.
