Zygonisia Cynosure 'Blue Birds'
I got this one from a trade here on the OB, it came in bud so I can't take credit for the blooms, but I think it's lovely and wanted to share with you all.

It's a little more purple than it is blue, but there's a Zygonisia Cynosure 'Blue Water Sailing' that I think is supposed to be more of a blue, I have one as well but it hasn't bloomed for me yet.

opportunity to pollinate !
I have a capsule at the lab currently, waiting to hear if there is germination. Its an inter-generic cross, theoretically impossible according to all resources.

What's the capsule of? Is it a recreation of this cross, or a selfing of it?

Sure I'll let you know if I ever do divide it... in the meantime I saw a bunch of them for sale on eBay recently and I don't think they were too expensive either
