A crested Pyrrosia that arrived in a parcel from a Sean Barton this morning. It seems to be a very good, crested form of P. lingua and it has grown vigorously in the greenhouse. It doesn't seem to be the same as P. lingua 'Cristata'. Pictures of 'Cristata' online shows a plant that seems to have more irregular leaves. Plant delights nursery show a form that they call P. lingua 'Corymbifera' which seems to have crested tips with a more rounded outline. Garrie Landry shows a number of crested forms on his website (www.pyrrosia.com) but none of the plants he shows are quite like this. It seems closest to 'Obake' but my plant has distinct folds in the crested tips of the fronds. |
