Lyc Alma de mi Alma
This is a cross between Shoalhaven (a well known hybrid) and a species = Lyc. guatemalensis. It is good for what it is, but not up to AOS award standards when compared to other hybrids available now.
This plant comes from Ecuagenera, but I bought mine on Ebay in late winter 2013. At the time, it was blooming with a single flower.
I got it into better growth, so in April 2014 it bloomed with 3 flowers, and then added one more in June.
This year the new growth got somewhat bigger, so it is blooming with 12 flowers & buds right now.
