Really love the colours.

Thank you for this interesting information, I could never think that any echinopsis could take such low temperatures!
-
Has anyone tried keeping Hildewintera-echinopsis hybrids in a cold winter storage?
Can they take the same temperatures as Trichocerus, lobivias & Echinopsis?
(I think that the limit for low temperatures of storing Ech-hybrids will be approx. - 5 degrees Celsius, what do you think?) -
Very nice plant!
Is it growing only upright? Must be hard to grow it upwards when the plant body is so thin?
Could you grow this as a "hanging plant"? -

I think it's beautiful too, a shame to throw it away.

Flowered today, dusted it with pollen from 11-2001.

Flowered today with 2 flowers.

I've got Liske's Prachtstuck.
It is a Cantora cross; E candicans x E Toralapana (x2). -

This morning Träumerei flowered. I've dusted it with pollen from BS.1353-05 ML1 (Lilian Harvey x Werner von Heisenberg).

I keep my plants on my glass covered porch. This is just temporarly because my small greenhouse collapsed this winter, due to too much snow.
Stefan: about getting Liske's Prachtstuck to flower; maybe you mix up it's ability to flower with plants from Gräser's Schönste (with siblings)? What I've read it's very easy to get Liske's Prachtstuck to flower but not Gräser's Schönste, Erfolg etc.
My porch has only 5,5 to 6 hours direct sunlight, what I believe is not enough (I'm constructing a greenhouse on 160 + square meters in my garden now, so I'll have a better place for my plants soon).
So far I've kept my plants indoor during wintertime. I turn off the heat in one room and close the door and forget about them until spring again (when risk of strong night frost is gone I place them out on my porch, now covered with shade cloth for 2-3 weeks, mist/spray the plants regularly with water).
I try to water gentle in spring, until the buds have developed quite strong. After that I start water regularly. I've read somewhere and I also have experience from buds turning into pups/offshots if plants are watered to much, to soon.
I water and fertilize once a week, using half doze of regular indoor plants fertilizer.

It's MOTHER is Lilian Harvey.
It's FATHER is Werner von Heisenberg.
Did I write the crossing partners in right or wrong order? (Mother X Father)?
I'm also sorry about the wrong link (I didn't make the link absolute), here's a proper one:

Here are some more photos!

Thank you Marc and Jurgen for your reply!
Yes, I've sown these from seed. I've got more plants (I haven't counted them but) 2 more of them have buds, I'll update this thread when I have new flowers (all plants look big and robust).
According to Ingo Lilian Harvey has only 10 cm flowers. Ingo wrote on my Echinopsis Gallery that Lilian Harvey has many lobivias inside and looks a bit like Schicks Icon. http://echinopsis.eu/displayim…pid=287#top_display_media
This plant has such a robust flower that I've never seen anything like it. It has a very strong tube (like Wessners 397 x 333, I think it was) but shorter.
I've dusted it with pollen from Liske's Prachtstuck. -
Flower is just starting to open.

Erstblüte

Moin zusammen,
ich habe hier eine Echinopsis kermesina , zumindestens steht es auf dem Schild.
Jedoch...blühen die nicht rot und sehen vom Körper nicht anders aus ?!
Darauf hin habe ich nach dem Körper gegoogelt, und bin auf Echinopsis mamillosa var. kermesina
gestossen...die blühen doch auch rot, oder gibt es eine weiss blühende Varität ?
Was ist denn das nun ?
LG
Frank
There is a white form of Echinopsis mamillosa (but it's not named var. kermesina).

I believe that all cameras have this "colour-error" and that it's more proper to share photos with these "true" (though containing errors) than to share "creative photos", enhanced with a computer!
I could get even medioker or bad looking hybrids look like "hammers", as some of you call them here on the forum, by using some "creative effort".
There are e.g. stripes in all flowers if just tweaked a bit with a proper software, so I think it's better to leave software alone from our photos.
No offense!
