Difference between Chirita "Blue Moon" and "Moonlight"

Description :

Chirita "Moonlight" (Boggan) Medium blue-purple. Green and silver markings, compact.

Chirita "Blue Moon"(Boggan) A stemless rosette that grows about 12” across. Blue-purple flowers over dark bluish-green leaves

In my place, two kinds of flowers look almost same and pattern on the leafs are hardly being distinguished. The silver markings only presented under the low temperature or high temperature difference enivorment, In hot summer at north of Taiwan, 34 Cin Day and 29 C in night, the markings will disappear and turns leafs into almost green.

The  flower of "C. Blue Moon"

From the description, you can find the obly difference out in these two very similar hybirds only by the plant sizes. Acutally, the moonlignt easily tends to a multi-growth on one stem and her sizes is around 20 cm across. in contrast,  the blue moon growth as only one plant, hardly lateral buds produced, and sizes can reach to 35-40 cm.

Sinn. 'HCY's Midnight Waltz'

Sinn. 'HCY's Midnight Waltz' hybirded by HCY in Taiwan, large and flesh red colored and multi-flowers.

Sinn Pirate's Ambivalent Nana

Mini-Sininigia from the Pirate's family produced by Alfrado in Taiwan. Pretty dark purple petal decorating pure purple unpredictable flecks at white throat part shows like a beauty has ambivalent hidding in her deep heart.

Clematis texensis‘Duchess of Albany’

for reference, funny is this species should be totally pink from inner to outner. At hot summer blooming in Taiwan, interesting cream white flower with pinky inside takes my frist eye in 2010 summer time. This came from Japan at last end of year as frist year age. Maybe it will trun to normal flowering in the future years.

Hoya macgillivrayi

This speices I bought it at summer in 2007 from flower market in Taiwan.
easy to glow in summer and keep dry in winter time.

Clematis texensis Ladybird Johnson

New Clematic floweting in my house. Dark Rad flower with 1" 1/2 size blooms at hot summer time.

Chirita Crossroads

Chirita Crossroads, comes from Atzuko's hibirds, quite large plants with lavender flower potted in 5" square pot.

Habenaria medusa

Habenaria medusa, one kind of terrestial orchid, frist time blooming in the green house on the roof.


Supposed that flower should like a displaying white crane or the hair of medusa, just as it's name, in the normal or cooler temperature used. However, maybe dued to the El Niño-Southern Oscillation phenomenon, the dry and continuing hot temperature in summer time make flowers twist and ugly.

Sinn. hybirds. (Pirate's selected)

Cherry pink tops and dots contrasts with white base flower blooms in 36 oC in Taiwan.

Hot summer makes everything wrong indeed.

過了似乎是獨立跟幼稚的交叉點後， 人的生活似乎就這麼的被鐵窗給限制住。

道德，傳統，思想，經濟。
還有一輩子最沉重的期望。

我的思考不再像是浮雲般的自由，卻凝結成凍。
時間的流線就這麼纏住在完全沒有聲音的空間裡。
層層的包裹，就像是綑綁上不能外洩的屍臭。

世界的時間已經不在屬於我的。

Chirita 雙心皮草

從左到右 分別是Piccolo Nimbus Souvenir 看的出花的差別嗎?

其實這三顆父母親都一樣說
都是 Peter Shalit 從C. spadiciformis x C. sclerophylla 搞出來的
繼承sclerophylla的斑跟spadiciformis 的葉型之三兄弟

再同一個環境下的確是有點差異 Souvenir 葉比較圓大且厚 花也是最大
Nimbus 個頭最嬌小 但是葉色斑紋對比最深 花小但是粉色較均勻 整個花筒顏色也一至
Piccolo 葉子介於中間 但是花色最深 其實同父母還有個怪小孩 叫‘Nemesis’ 完全沒葉班

近點看Piccolo Nimbus , Piccolo 開花都會有些鏽斑


而Souvenir 花卻是一梗一梗的開 花量又多

其實這三顆應該都是看葉斑的 但是冬天看看花也是不錯的xd
