Received this compact mexi-ping as a bonus plant last year from fellow Canadian, Cole Bonfield. This is a hybrid Cole made by crossing a mother P. jaumavensis with pollen from the P. emarginata "large red rosette" clone. This clone is currently splitting into two, while also sending up its first flowers, under my care.  I have no idea what these flowers will eventually look like, but the veining visible on the forming flower petals, is promising. dvg |

These older posts provide great information for me. I just realized that I have purchased a few plants from a fellow grower using the similar named parents. I hope the flower looks as great as yours.

An update on this tale of two clones, with one waking, whilst the other dives deeper into sleep.  dvg |

The resting rosette may be stirring.  Its potmate sends a flower upward.   dvg |

The colour of the leaves and the veining pattern is also very nice.

Almost a week later and this bloom's colors have noticeably faded.  dvg |

Had noticed that this clone's rosette had divided after its previous flowering, which is not unusual for mexi-pings.  But when it was flipped around today, it turned out there were four divisions on the backside, which was a pleasant surprise.  dvg |
