Re: Edwin Dwianto

Just use a pollinating brush to transfer the pollen from the anthers of one to the stigma of the other and vice versa. The problem can be if the two plants are clones of each other, being vegetative propagations from the same original plant if not seed grown. Therefore if it is a self sterile speci...

Re: Creating a monstrose Pereskiopsis through grafting

I decided to use a larger piece of ASM. I currently have two cuttings a neighbor gave me. They're still in the process of rooting, but when they're rooted I plan to graft Pereskiopsis on top of one. I haven't checked the Pereskiopsis I did the tissue insertion on in a while. I doubt it's gone monst...

Good morning Sirs Thanks for the response I can't wait to see the next flower...to see the color of the style 👍 2. Hyb...

Re: Creating a monstrose Pereskiopsis through grafting

Good morning Shane

What has become of this experiment?
You stop experimenting?

I'm curious to know if there is actually virus in ASM
