Hybrids with Yucca rupicola

[Benny, Northern Denmark]

Hello,

As I wrote in Andy's topic "Three new Yuccas to my collection " did I make the hybrid: Yucca filamentosa ssp. concava albo-variegata (834) X rupicola, Kerr Co., Texas (388B) (BMJ 2011-030). But this is not the first hybrid I have made with Yucca rupicola I have mad a few others also:

Yucca sp. [gloriosa forma robusta] "Hæstrupvej" x rupicola (pollen from Thomas Stöckl, Austria), Made by Benny M. Jensen, Denmark, in 2010, BMJ 2010-037.

I'm not alone in making hybrids with Yucca rupicola, others also have had success with this parent:

Yucca rupicola x filamentosa-flaccida complex, made by C. Tembaak, Germany in 2010, 7 fruits.

and there are also one whom did make seeds by pollinating the plant with it's own pollen:

Yucca rupicola x rupicola, pollinated with it's own pollen, made by C. Tembaak, Germany in 2010, 2 fruits.

In another message I will add some photos of some the rupicola hybrids I grow in our garden and greenhouse.

Hello Benny,

That's huge list of rupicola/palida hybrids. I'm looking forward to see your rupicola hybrids.

Best regards,

Hello again,

Here is a few photos of hybrids with genes from Yucca rupicola:

Yucca "Karlsruhensis type 2" x rupicola (BMJ#2374A):





Yucca 'Bright Edge' x rupicola (BMJ #2383A):




Yucca filamntosa ssp. concava albo-variegata x rupicola, Kerr Co. (BMJ #2630H):



Yucca flaccida [forma glaucescense] x rupicola, Kerr Co. Texas(BMJ #2661C):



Have a nice day

Hello Benny,

thank you for the photos of interesting rupicola hybrids. Rupicola genes in those hybrids with twisted leaves is already visible. I have few hybrid seedlings with Y. palida. Seeds kindly donated to me by Janci (Janko, also member of this forum and Yucca und more). I think that those hybrids created Christoph Tembaak (Sammy), but i'm not sure.
Y. filamentosa 'Bright Edge' x Y. glauca x Y. palida ('frucht' 3)

Y. 'Karlsruhensis' x Y. elata (or Y.filata?)x Y. palida

Y. palida x. Y. filamentosa 'Bright Edge' x Y. glauca ('frucht' 1)

Left one looks more like pure Y. palida and the one on the right side like Y. glauca.

Best regards,

Mario
