Two first bloom C. Mareeba Tiger

[Louis_W]

These are seedlings from SVO. Ive had them for two years now and they are finally big enough to bloom!

Ill start with the budding plants because they are quite different

One is a dark 4n cross, which is clearly quite dark and quite a bit stronger and thicker

tigrina 'SVO Dark Wonder' 4n. X
schilleriana 'SVO Yes 4n'






The other is two coerulea parents that apprear so far to have created a coerulea progeny:

tigrina f. coerulea 'Kathleen' JC/AOS. X
schilleriana f. coerulea 'Good Color'





Stay tuned, im excited to compare these two. The plants are only half size so i think I can expect quite a bit more from both of these plants next year. Perhaps ill post on this same thread in the coming years as they both bloom and gain vigor.

Also if anyone else has this cross id love to see yours! The flowers seem quite variable and im not sure how big the plant gets yet.
