Title: Sinningia Sdlg. K5
Post by: Dennis Kramb on February 17, 2023, 03:27:16 PM
This cross is  ( leucotricha × "Seminole (white-flowered sport)" ).  The first sibling to bloom from this batch took only 4½ months from seed, but K5 shown here took 3½ years.  You can tell its old because the tuber is quite large.

A niche and compact plant with a clear color - now it would be interesting to show its siblings: if they look essentially the same just flower quicker from seeds, they'd be the superior clones. So: was it worth the wait?
