Product description

The white bat flower produces peculiar white-purple flowers, in contrast to the black flowers on the normal bat flower. The species originates from the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, where it grows in moist and shades places. It can be grown well as an indoor plant, but the plant should be sprayed with water regularly to mimic the high humidity of the rainforest. The leaves can grow quite large and the plant will reach an height to maximum 1 meter.

This temperature can be reached by placing the pot on the heater, make sure to remove the germinated plants for the heater, since the humidity on top of an heater is low. Germination can take up to several months.

Joop

Zaden eerst 24h laten weken en in een mengsel van zaai- en stekgrond gezaaid, in een bamibakje met deksel, op kamertemperatuur. Na 2 tot 3 weken waren gewoon 10 plantjes van de 13 zaden opgekomen! Heel erg blij mee!


Sarah

Na ongeveer een maand beginnen de eerste zaadjes te kiemen. Ze staan bij mij in een kweekbakje met vermiculiet op een warmtematje bj een raam op ‘t westen.


W. de Groot

Na ongeveer 6 weken 4 van de 12 zaden ontkiemd, op de vensterbank met zon en bodemwarmte.


Richard

Voorlopig 9 van de 10 gekiemt, na 1 maand. Nu inmiddels 2 blaadjes. Groeien heel traag staan op gemiddeld 22 tot 25 graden.

Van de chantrieri is na 2 pogingen niets opgekomen.
