C. beckettii flower
Re: C. beckettii flower
Awesome, I love it when my crypts flower -- never gets old!
Re: C. beckettii flower
Thanks Kris. Hoping I get some of the others to flower too. Sad part is I have had some crypts since 2003 and not only have they never flowered but for the longest time did not even think about them possibly flowering. Bit of a mental disconnect there as I fully realize that the vast majority of the plants we keep are angiosperms. ![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)

Re: C. beckettii flower
Yeah, I've not tried putting crypts outside, but I love throwing various stem plants out in the pond, and seeing their flowers through the summer...
Re: C. beckettii flower
I have been planning on putting out some I have extras of but have not gotten around to it yet. Maybe this weekend
Re: C. beckettii flower
Got a new crypt flowering at the moment. One that I'm very excited about.
C. vietnamensis is a very rare crypt from Vietnam but only 2 or 3 locations. Got this plant from Aaron a few years ago and it has grown well emersed and for the first time is flowering. Also have a C. ponterderifolia flowering now as well. Not sure why the pictures are not right side up but they show correctly when you click on them.
