Matucana hybrid seedlings

18 years ago

Early one summer morning in the not so long ago past, a floriferous matucana formosa v. gracilior

{{gwi:461863}}
had a not so chance encounter with a blooming matucana oerodoxa

{{gwi:461864}}
with intimacy in mind. Pollen was exchanged in a glorious, but brief moment.

Now months later, seed soaked and sown a few days ago from that productive procreation now break the soil.

Life is good! And it's even raining here for the first time in months. Life is really good!

Hi Dan

These seedlings are in my basement. They were sown on top of my bonsai soil mix with fines sifted on top to lightly cover them.
