One healthy, actively growing 3–4 leaf seedling. Photos may include parent/reference plants; the plant received is a seed-grown sibling unless an exact plant is specifically identified.
(BVEP × Portillae “Dorito”) × (Carlablackiae “Round” × Besseae “Spider”)
“Dorito” is an Albert’s clone that came through Scott Cohen. I kept the original designation attached because that source history matters to the cross.
This parent was bred by Granthuriums. The Round and Spider designations are preserved as received.
I wanted to combine the broad, dark direction I liked in Dorito with the movement and proportions coming through Round × Spider. Several juveniles are already showing a wider dagger-like direction, which is one of the reasons I kept watching this batch.
Projected traits are possibilities, not promises. Each seedling is genetically unique.
The structure is what has my attention here. The juveniles are still changing quickly, so I’m more interested in which plants keep that width and posture as they size up than in calling the finished phenotype early.
THE JIGGY PICK
I select from the available batch at shipping time, starting with the strongest, healthiest material and the best expression of the traits I’m watching for at that stage. If one is showing out and makes me stop and say, “Sheesh,” that is usually the one I’m reaching for.
YOU'RE ENTERING THE STORY HERE
Unless a listing explicitly says otherwise, photos document the genetics, parent material or representative plants. Your order is Grower’s Choice from the available batch.
STRONG ROOTS FIRST.
Keep the plant stable after arrival and give it time to settle before chasing the next leaf. For my full approach to acclimation, ambient growing, cabinets, seedlings and established plants, use the Jiggy Care Guide.
READ THE JIGGY CARE GUIDE#JIGGYBABIES AFTER THE BOX
When this plant leaves the Jiggy Vault, the story is not over. Settle it in, learn what it likes, ask when you need help, and enjoy what the genetics become in your hands. When an emergent has you saying OMG, send it my way. That is the fun of #Jiggybabies.
The Care Guide gives you a starting point, and I am still here if your plant has you confused.
Plant safety, honest expectations and support after delivery are part of the same standard.
Emergents, first big leaves, weird surprises and those “that’s fire” moments are worth sharing with the people growing alongside you.
