- NETHERCOURT

One of 18 plants grown from 26 seeds received from Cok as (CG 93-116) and sown on 29/11/1993.

A twin headed plant showing that these forms offset steadily, two offsets being removed previously on 25/07/2001. Some of them have roughened retuse windows and some have smooth ones.

The leaves are quite upright before reaching the handsome, retuse window.

ex Mitsuo Ekuma of Japan following his visit here in 1991.

Received as H. emelyae (f. beukmannii).

Shades of green to tan and smaller than the plant above, although similar in form.

From our seed batch CCO 533 (CC 1508, above, x  CC 1852, a clone from George Lombard).

35 seeds were sown on 05/12/1996 and four clones were retained.

and probably duplicated by CC 106, shown in the second photograph.

Dark brown/green, glossy leaves with translucent, retuse leaf tips. Mid-brown, toothed margins & keel. The outer leaf-surface has paler, pink speckles & pink 'variegated' smudges. Very nice.

This plant name is controversial. Originally obtained as H. reticulata f. guttata it is a handsome and colourful form which, some say, may be of hybrid origin.
