Hippeastrum reticulatum X [H. papilio x H. cybister]
« on: November 23, 2011, 08:17:59 PM »
Hallo at all,
in a german plants forum I saw a photo of this hippeastrum:

I like this flower very much. The owner said, he bought it labelled as H. reticulatum X [H. papilio x H. cybister], but the source is no longer available.
Does anybody in this forum know a source in the EU to get this hippeatrum from?
Best regards - Ulrich

Judging from where you live Ulrich, you should be growing Veltheimias. :)

Good luck Heinie, my plants are still seedlings so I have some years to wait....
