Dear Friends,
I have 'done' a Urospatha from the Orinoco Delta by a Urospatha grandis from
Costa Rica BOTH WAYS, but don`t THINK a Urospatha X Crytosperma would
'take', too distantly related, I THINK!!
Alsitar Hay did C. cuspidispathum X C. becarianum some years ago, wonderful
offspring, beautiful plants. Lots of hybrids in Anthurium, have seen some
strange ones, including birdsnest form crossed to a cordate form (I am not
'big' into this genus, but believe both belonged to the section
Pachyneurium.
Good luck Brian!!
Cheers,
Julius
