Kovachii backcross seedlings

[SophiaL]

Just potted up yesterday. A set of 6 large seedlings from Manolo Arias when he visited Germany recently.
The postal system seems to have worked well and the seedlings seem to be healthy.
Parentage is ( besseae x kovachii) x kovachii.
Each seedling is quite a clump with several growths.
They look quite mature for seedlings in flask.
They are potted into a mix of NZ sphagnum and perlite.
I am sitting a plastic bag over them until they hopefully start to grow.
They will have to grow with the rest of the phrags in the kitchen.
This is my first attempt at seedlings so fingers crossed.
I could not resist the offer of this cross.
It could be years before plants are available in Europe.
