Looks like a trich will finally flower for me : )

[bardo]

First one is the ruby visions terschekii cross and the other is some kind of echinopsis, Hope they will flower around the same time so i can try cross them.

Just thought i would share : )

[Berengar]

Beautiful plants, love all those 'weird' Trichocerei, I hope you get some seeds, the cross would probably look amazing! (btw, I'd definitely be willing buy a few of those seeds)

[gtarman]

Nice one bardo, I'm jealous!

[nrivers]

Keen to see the flowers! Keep us posted

[bardo]

Thanks : )

I will post pics along the way and if all works out I will defo share the seeds, will keep some aside for you Berengar : )

COnGrATuLatIOnS!!! Please show us the pics!

the 2nd looks familiar,,, maybe Echinopsis comarapana or bridgesii (not to be confused with t. bridgesii), or another one ive seen at my local botanical garden. its always neat to have one of them obscure ones yourself!

[highdesertcacti]

bruchii??

[bardo]

Hi, thank you : ) does look similar to a bruchii. I Know this one produces a white flower so maybe a comarapana ?

Mate i still have some desicated bb scop pollen in the freezer if you would like me to send you some....pm me? Have not utilised it after this lenght of time but seamed to still be uber potent after a few months.

Cheers b

[Master B]

Taken around jan/feb this year and desiccated within an hour.

Cheers

Every flower I put master B's scop pollen on last year took. It will be the first pollen I use this year unless my first 2 plants happen to flower at exactly the same time and they're ones I want to cross with each other.

Unless I have a second scop flowering this year I will also use this pollen on the some of the scop flowers that already has buds on it.

[bardo]

Sweet, thanks heaps Master B, sounds great

That will make some interesting plants for sure. I will put some of the seeds aside for you if all goes well : )

[bardo]

starting to open up a little : )

[interbeing]

^^^ The one in the top pic looks like a Echinopsis calochlora

[bardo]

Hey I think your right, defo looks like it.

cheers : )

[bardo]

Hey, sorry for the late update, here is some picks of the flower and what it looked like about a week ago, ill put up a current photo tomorrow.

Hope the pollen takes : )

[Berengar]

Oh FFS, that's even more amazing then I imagined! I really hope it produces fruits for you!

[bardo]

Thanks, fingers crossed : )

[nrivers]

What a flower, awesome colour! What did you pollinate with?

[bardo]

I used Maser b's scope pollen which he generously sent me : )

It did unfortunately get delayed in the mail over the weekend despite being sent express, so I hope it was still viable?

Time will tell : ) here is what it looked like yesterday

[Visceral420]

That flower is stunning!

Would love to try some seeds if pollination is successful! :D

[bardo]

Cool, I will be sharing the seeds if all goes well : )
