교잡종

[석짜]

by Jose Almandoz

********************

I have seen this sort of thing several times with interspecifics. In fact, one of the characteristics of interspecifics is that the sexual parts tend to hang downwards, though usually enclosed within the petals and not outside them, as in this case.

In contrast, in miniata the stigma tends to protrude directly outwards from the centre of the flower and the stamens are arranged symetrically around the stamen, without any "falling"  downwards.

At Clivia Shows in South Africa plants some entered in the interspecific section may appear very miniata-like at first glance (e.g, a [miniata x caulescens] x miniata of mine) but on closer examination they show that characteristic leaning downwards of the stamens and stigma. If they do not show that then the Show stewards may exclude them from the interspecific class.

꽃술이 좀 특이하군요.

[서연이5622]

꽃술이랑 꽃길이도 길군요^

[향기로운]

암술 수술의 길이가 똑갔네요 일반적으로 암술이 더길던데......꽃색은 이쁘네요...

[꽃생각]

꽃송이에 아래로 단트임이 특징이네요.
국내에도 몇년이 지나면 저런 교잡종들이 많아질까 하고 떠올려 봅니다.

[김준영]

꽃과 꽃술이 서로 미모 자랑질 하는것 같읍니다

[세상에]

설의 변이가 생겼을까요 특이성이 확연히 드러났네요
