Hibridek, kultivárok és egyéb bizonytalan eredetű növények × Chamaelobivia 'Henrietta'

× Chamaelobivia 'Henrietta' is a hybrid bred in Hungary that has never been published yet, and its hybridizer, Gyula Szutorisz passed away to the eternal cactus fields some weeks ago. One parental species of this hybrid is Chamaecereus silvestrii that can be also recommended for beginners, thus some Western European nurseries hybridized it with Lobivia (sensu stricto) species to create easy-to-care plants in a high variability. I bought the 'Henrietta' 10-15 years ago from uncle Gyula. He thought he was the first to create this flower colour, thus he was very proud of this plant and he named it after his much bellowed daughter, Henrietta. The plant branches basally, and form compact clusters. Stems are dull green, 15-25 mm in diameter, their lengths never reach more than 10 cm. Flowers emerge on the top of the stems, 40 mm in diameter. The plant flowers usually in June and the plant is hardly floriferous. This modest behaviour is characteristic to the whole plant as its growth is also slow that can be accelerated a little bit by a more intensive watering. This plant can be found in some Hungarian collections. Take care on it and make it more prevalent among the collectors to let it subsist!
