Relevant the paper:

MR0052462 Reviewed <http://ams.u-strasbg.fr/mathscinet/help/fullitem_help_full.html#review> 
van der Blij, F. <http://ams.u-strasbg.fr/mathscinet/search/author.html?mrauthid=38020>
Binary quadratic forms of discriminant −23. 
Nederl. Akad. Wetensch. Proc. Ser. A. 55 = Indagationes Math. 14, (1952). 498–503. 

I think the relation, or something very similar,  is proved there.
Best regards,
Juan Arias de Reyna
