Disocactus macranthus (photo : Alain Laroze) (photo 4)
Epiphyllum x 'George's Favorite' (photographs 1 and
2) is the cross-breeding between Disocactus macranthus
(botanical winter blooming species
as the mother) and a hybrid Epiphyllum called 'Christmas Red'
as the father, this Epiphyllum is also a winter
blooming one. The latter is resulting from Disocactus
eichlamii as the mother (botanical early
spring blooming species).
Epiphyllum X 'Tiny Flame' (photo 3) is the cross-breeding of the winter blooming Epiphyllum X 'Vive Rouge' (as the mother) with the already quoted Disocactus macranthus (as the father).
Disocactus macranthus and Epiphyllum X 'George's Favorite' were found among the ancestors of other Epiphyllum hybrids which bloomed during this 2013/2014 winter in my collection.
But there was another interesting ancestor that I hadn't yet noticed. >>>Next page 5/13
