ID Adromischus sp.

Hello, I have this Adromischus sp. with no ID, and when it finally bloomed, I got a bit puzzled.
I hadassumed it would be a hybrid including A. filicaulis ssp. marlothii.
Can anyone help me please? (I currently am in Argentina)
Thanks in advanced.

Re: ID Adromischus sp.

The flowers rather suggest a plant of section 3 than of section 1.
Photo 6 is somewhat resembling : http://www.crassulaceae.ch/de/artikel?a … F&aID=1923

Re: ID Adromischus sp.

Thanks Margrit, I hadn't had it in consideration before. Could it be possible that here we have an hybrid between A. filicaulis ssp. marlothii x A. fallax? I should write to the lady who gave it to me and ask for further info about the precedence of this specimen.
Also I've noticed that there aren't that much papers or bibliography about Adromischus spp. as I expected to. Is this an impression of mine or is that so? I would appreciate any recommended bibliography or reference sites to get more knowledge (I love to learn).

Greetings and thanks

Re: ID Adromischus sp.

Flowers funnel-shaped and with longer pedicel for Section 3 ; here, the corolla tube seems constricted upwards, and the pedicel is short.

Re: ID Adromischus sp.

Most likely you already know Derek Tribble's site : http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/adrodisp/

Unfortunately it has not been updated for quite some time.

It would indeed be very helpful to know the origin of this plant.
