Hippeastrum flower bud |
This plant is the result of crossing a deep red-flowered cultivar with a pink, striped one. It has a reddish-bronze leaf colour so if the flower's good, I might have a useful plant.
When you cross pollinate plants that are normally grown as clones (by making cuttings, splitting clumps or bulbs, or grafting) you never know whether you'll get something good or something less than average.
I just have to wait a few more days and then I'll see.
