Identification:
- Identification: Harry E. Luther (2009-06-02) =Pitcairnia integrifolia
- Looks like Pitcairnia integrifolia, the more commonly cultivated salmon one. Also comes in red. HEL
- Note: Eric Gouda (2009-06-02) - Harry,
Thanks for your reply! It looks like it (at first glance), but it differs in many ways to the red P.integrifolia that we are growing. This has turmbinate ovaries and the branches much longer when starting the first flowers. Their petals are not as a cap over the anthers as you can see in this one. (Sent: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
