T. fortunei X T. princeps progress

[Fallen Munk]

T. fortunei X T. princeps hybrid that I got as a strap leaf from @Josue Diaz a few years ago.  I think this is my favorite trachy cross by far.

That's very nice. Here is one of my Waggie  x Princeps.(new form) from what I've heard the new form has been faster growing but darker fronds.

Thanks for sending it my way!  It's been a fast grower.

@Josue Diaz Did you grow these from seed you purchased?

I've got a bunch of those I grew from seed acquired from Victor Silver.  They have about half the growth rate as the fortunei hybrid.  They are coming along faster than pure princeps though.

My hybrids also came from seeds from victor that a friend germinated.

Yes, fairly certain these seeds came from across the pond. Perhaps grower in the UK???
