Very nice, Ramón! Great color on this one. Are you growing it potted?

Thanks Nat! Yes, I grow all my Sophronitis potted... Had no luck with them mounted, as I cannot water them every single day as it would be needed... |

Very nice Ramón, one of my favorite species.
Seems the best one I ever grew was also potted. Have 2 mounted, one is doing fine, the other languishing - it just can't get established.  I see a pot in its future |

Interesting... I had to mount my cernua to keep the roots from rotting, it grows well if slowly mounted on epiweb-type stuff and watered a max of 3-4 times per week. I've seen some very nice cernua both potted and mounted, though, so I guess a lot of it just comes down to setup, conditions, and watering habits. One of my favorite species as well!

Hi Nat, is your plant straight on the EpiWeb? Any moss, etc also under the plant?
