Hello Otto,
I have found yellow dushanbe to be more sensitive than other commonly cultivated forms of bucharica. I think that your bucharica x warlyensis is the plant doing the rounds here as "Blue Warlsind". Did you reproduce the cross yourself? It is a very good value plant as I grow it.

Otto you do have some really choice junos and will have more in time if all the seed germinate.

Pat and Otto,

Fantastic photos!  Just caught up on the last 5 pages or so.  Some beauties in there.  Otto's aucheri 'Shooting Star' was absolutely gorgeous in person.  It was in flower when I was down there visiting him in September.  Such a beautifully deep colour.  I love the various bucharicas too.  I have tried it a couple of times years ago and lost it each time.  I really must try it again now that I have finally cracked the juno growing, as I have now had a few of them survive two years or more (3 years in the case of my seedlings I think).  Given that bucharica is supposed to be the easiest, I was rather reticent about trying any others, but after germinating some seed one year and having them survive for 12 months I decided to try some more.  I think I have about 10 of them now, but still no bucharica.  Must get it from Marcus this summer..... the addiction continues.  ;D ;D

Thanks again for showing us your wonderful treasures.
Cheers.
