Ian Hook, Sydney 12/06, from Bromeliad Garden Nursery. Bi-coloured petals?
Ian Hook, Sydney 12/09, from old collection of Cliff Norden*. Single colour petals?
* There has been discussion among "The Till Nuts" over petal colour of schiedeana.
As well as review of the older "Major" and "Minor" classification.
Have different but similar species been too readily "lumped" together ?
Are the plants in cultivation all pure species plants ?
Reported with Yellow, Green, and bi-coloured petals, and two distinct(?) sizes.
Hopefully an expert will try to unravell and write a report soon.
