Puya 'Cayata' (grown from seeds from unidentified herbarium specimen) - BRBS Meeting (200911) |
Huge flower spike and big white flowers. |
Doing well in a 10" pot at sea level while getting lots of sun. |
Newly acquired. |
Notes: Tropiflora grew a bunch of these from seeds from an unidentified herbarium specimen, "Puya species cayata Ecuador HL 1-08". Harry Luther said that this is a high altitude plant and shouldn't do well in Florida. However, it seems to do quite well for me and flowered. No offsets so far so I'll be collecting seed. |
