Pleione Shantung

This is a nice hybrid between formosana x confusa ( Pleione x confusa is a natural hbr. between albiflora and forrestii)

the flower is quite large and lightly scented

 

It's one of my new bulbs, was too good to not put the photo, it should settle around 3-4C°=37-39 F°, the important thing is that no frosts ever.
I hope to still be able to next year, I also recently purchase Pleione who are putting the flower,but also those of last year should flourish, so I am confident.

 

I think that in your climate You can try with succes

 

sorry but I don't understand

 

thanks for traslation !!! It's only a bulb! there are no leaves because will grow when the flower falls
I have that happen the other way but then the bulb is dead!


I'm going to make a pic of bulb so you can see better!

 

my camera has a low battery
then I could only use the phone


what do you see is a meter, then divided in cm, 2.54 cm are about an inch

 

I have found this other

I use a mix of sphagnum moss, perlite and bark fine and medium, I put on the surface some moss green.
