RHODOPHIALA 2019

The first Rhodophiala of the year opened a couple of days ago despite the overcast skies and chilly weather.  Rhodophiala montana from Chilaeflora seed.

A new hybrid I made a few years ago.  The cross is R. advena x R. montana. it seems synced to R. montana which is just hours from opening - see last year's post just above. This one is yellow and the second, which is not open yet, promises pale peach - in the rear.  They appear very fragile compared to either parent.

A kind gift of seed from Ashley, Rhoodophiala pratensis in flower yesterday.  Originally from Chilaeflora. ashley do you recall the year that was? I can only recall it was the year of your disastrous greenhouse freeze.
