Default Emersed Crypt ID
Dear All,

I bought these crypts from a plant farm in emersed condition. I grew them in a plastic planter box outside my flat's balcony and they have flowered regularly for me since then:







Any suggestion on their ID? I suspect that they belong to varients of C. wendtii.

Regards,
T S Wang

Looks like C. wendtii.
See the following on Jan Bastmeijer's site:

Hi HeyPK, thanks for the confirmation. I referred to Jan D. Bastmeijer's website before, its just that the C. wendtii's flowers shown are quite varied in colour too so I couldn't be sure and thus wanted more confirmation.
