Aeonium2003's blog: Attempted hybridization

Posted on May 12, 2022 12:53 PM

All Aeonium crosses in the previous blog post made seeds. Some are currently germinating right now.
In addition, I attempted the following crosses:
Aeonium decorum x zwartkin
Aeonium haworthii x decorum

One of my Sempervivum forming a flower stalk. I will attempt to match up the blooms of the Aeoniums as well as the sempervivums.
If all else fails, I have more than enough pollen stored in the freezer, of decorum, blushing beauty, plum purdy, and other Aeoniums.

I recently attempted an intergeneric cross between Aeonium Zwartkin and Echeveria purpusorum. The likelihood of that cross being successful is very low, but the ovaries are swelling on the pollinated Echeveria flowers. Confused
