Catasetinae roots in spring
 
1 Attachment(s)
I was going to repot this into a 2-liter bottle before I left to visit family, but didn't have a chance to do it. Ten days ago would have been ideal.

It is SVO 8191, a new Momordia (Mo.) hybrid, Clowesia (Cl.) Grace Dunn 'Live Oak' HCC/AOS x Mormodes (Morm.) hookeri 'Fuzz'.

I'm still going to do it. My sunroom is very humid this time of year. These plants make aerial basket roots, which is what it is doing now. I will pot it so these upward-facing roots are just at the surface in the new container.

That cross sounds really nice. Hopefully lots of flowers like Grace Dunn produces with the darker blooms of the Mormodes.
How long before you could expect bloomimg?

If I keep it alive, the next growth should flower in season.

My 6 look like that but I'm still holding off on the watering. A spritz is all I dare give them now. :nailbite:

Gosh... my six are just teen-tiny little half-inch nubbins. That makes me kinda nervous now. :hmm

WW - mine started early this year. Don't worry. Plus my growing area is probably far warmer all winter. My winter days are longer and sunnier than yours.

Yes, but I was thinking more of DeaC, zone 6, New Joisey.
