Hi All, some seedlings coming into flower (not induced into flower) at present.
Have used a plant of Ae. Madi Gras to give a comparison of size in the foreground in first image (Ae Madi Gras is the same plant with reverse variegation to Ae. Lucky Stripes);
Aechmea Lucky Stripes X Ae. retusa 2 seedlings + 1 Ae. Madi Gras;

The next image is showing one seedling from above cross with a seedling from the reverse cross, The reverse cross looks almost exactly the same as Aechmea retusa the pod parent plant & will most likely flower in summer as a larger plant?
{{gwi:484610}}
the pod parent (plant the seed was produced on) is very obvious in each cross.
Have more seedlings flowering, will post some when I get more time. cheers allan
