This is an interesting crossing, we tried it with koh-yo as motherplant and myriostigma fukuryu hekiran as fatherplants.
Seedlings are still small cos we did not grafted them.
Maybe there is an higher % of success if you use ornatum fukuryu and not myrio fukuryu as motherplant, but appearance of the plants are more hybrid.
If other people have similar results please share them here, thanks!

I recently selected these seed grown plants to be grafted out of many normal Fukuryu.
Hopefully they will flower and can be crossed to bring out more Fukuryu Koh-yo.





Carlo & Daniele

just great!!!!
did you record the cross with you obtained these plants?

thanks

Thanks fane and C+D. The seedlings were selected from all my fukuryu seedlings(more than 1000!) cause they showed some signs of koh-yoh. So they are all from different crosses. I didn't record which were which. I figured I would breed these with each other and start a new line  by back crossing with the best.
Cortona, thts a great plant, really good fukuryu character and almost Rasta colours for the koh-yo. Nice!

Thought i would update the seedlings I grafted. It's early Summer here so they have all gone much greener. I expect that they will colour up again once the weather cools down.

Good luck Simon, the plants in photo 3 and 4 show already some good characters koh-yo!

Simon, sorry to dig up an old thread.  Can I ask if you are using the baked clay granules as your potting medium or just as a top dressing?  Thanks,  Steve
