First time ever that I had a T. Ionantha bloom under my care. As usual with Ionanthas, there were 2 stamens.
The first bloomed on 6 Dec and the second stamen bloomed and revealed its stigma this morning.
I learnt some tips from YouTube and with a small paintbrush, I've collected the pollen from the stamens and pollinated the stigmas....
Let's hope there'll be seeds in the future!
Once the blooms wither in the next few days, this plant will be pushing pups out thereafter. I hope there'll be at least 2 pups.....yay, I'm gonna be an Ionantha grandma soon!
