February 2020 PRE-ORDER LIST

www.facebook.com/orchidphile (203) 329-7255

Address all correspondence & orders to: [email protected]

(Please mention “Plant Pre-Order” & note the particular show/event or “Mail Order” in the subject line)

This list replaces & supersedes all previous lists. All orders are filled in the order in which they are received and are subject to prior sale. Be aware that a few very special plants will only be reserved for your Pre-Order, for a show or mail order.

PLEASE NOTE: Prices are listed in US Dollars

NEW: We’ve chosen to separate the different types of Phalaenopsis

into their very own sections to make finding the type of Phalaenopsis you like much easier:

Phalaenopsis Categories are now divided into: Species, Multi-Floral Minis, Micro-Minis, “Big Lip” hybrids, Waxy (often Fragrant) Novelties

& larger-flowering Classic Phalaenopsis in new colors & patterns

We’ve also expanded our collection of miniature Vandaceous, miniature Dendrobiums, miniature Oncidinae &

divisions of some of our select Paphs in addition to Miscellaneous Genera ~

all of which grow & flower happily with our Phals. Each genus is put into their own category after our Phal. listings.

Most plants are in 2.7 - 3” pots as first or second bloomers unless otherwise noted as being in 4” pots

Stock quantities of 6 or fewer are noted in parens

ORDERING INFORMATION FOR OUR MAIL ORDER CLIENTS:

In the winter or during inclement weather, shipments may be delayed pending more moderate weather conditions. Shipping is either

via FedEx Ground or Air depending on the final destination. We reserve the right to withdraw any offering from sale and to limit quantities. We guarantee all plants to be true to their identity to the best of our knowledge. However, since many come in from Taiwan, we have to assume they are properly labeled as to their species or hybrid name. We make no warranty as to the productiveness of any

plants sold since everyone’s culture conditions vary widely.

Although we do our utmost to pack carefully, we are not responsible for damage to buds or flowers due to shipping if buyer specifically requests these plants ~ therefore, risk is assumed by buyer for buds or flowers on plants shipped at this stage

Safe arrival of a healthy orchid plant is guaranteed.

Packing & Shipping Charges:

Based on the total of your order, a minimum of 10% for packing plus the actual FedEx shipping cost will be charged. We use FedEx Ground for all 1-3 day deliveries within our delivery zone since Ground shipping rates are much more reasonable than Air.

If heat packs are requested, they will be provided for an additional $4.50.

Additional Shipping Note: FedEx charges an extra $3.50 for “Home Delivery” so many of our clients choose to have their plants

delivered either to their office or to a nearby FedEx Ship Center that accepts “Hold for Pickup” packages ~ those business/FedEx locations always get their deliveries much earlier in the day than the average Home Delivery. If you want to save the additional charge

levied for Home Delivery, please let us know if you have a business address you would like to use, or we can research a FedEx location near you that would accept a Ground or Express package as a “Hold for Pickup”.

During the colder & hotter months of the year, having your plants sent to either your business address or a FedEx location as a “Hold for Pickup” usually means it’s delivered much earlier in the day & is not exposed to riding around on a cold or hot delivery vehicle for

additional hours. So whenever possible, we highly recommend doing this.

SIZE DEFINITIONS:

PF = Previously flowered, fully mature Blooming Size plants F = Currently in flower (single spike unless otherwise noted) B = In bud (single spike unless otherwise noted) SP = In spike, just initiating to medium spike stage (single spike unless otherwise noted) BS = Blooming size (should flower in season) NBS = Near blooming size (approximately 1 year to flowering in season) S = about 2-3 years to flowering

PHAL SPECIES:

Most of these Phalaenopsis species are from Taiwan & reflect much improved forms & colors, having been sibbed or selfed using very select parents. Species like Phal. bellina, violacea, venosa, speciosa, gigantea, viridis and javanica are extremely

slow to reach maturity & can be easily lost as small seedlings so we’re only offering well-established Near Blooming or Blooming Size plants. As a result of their extra years to reach maturity, the pricing on these plants is higher than is usual for

quicker growing & more readily available Phal. species.

Phal. aphrodite subsp. formosana

‘A09001’ (4N)

(TETRAPLOID FORM of Species)

A dynamite tetraploid form of this favorite of all Phal. species ! This clone is producing more compact leaves and much larger flowers than is typical for this subspecies of aphrodite. Its fuller

form & beautifully round flowers with the petals almost touching carries great

substance & produces a much longer-lasting display with a smaller leaf span than is typical for this species. And the bonus to this particular 4N strain is their naturally & gracefully cascading spikes

which make for a stunning display !

Phal. bellina fma. coerulea

(Sib Cross of FRAGRANT Species)

The fragrant & beautiful Phal. bellina in a new color form ! This cerulean strain has

a blue flush which, along with its deep lavender lip, makes quite a statement. And a few from this sibbing will revert

with a more typical rich pink bellina flush. This species will continue to flower on

older inflorescences in addition to producing new. We’re guessing this

group is about a year from flowering & yet we’ve seen a couple spike up already,

showing their increased vigor as a sib cross ~ of course, they sold right away !

owner of the only known plant of this variety.

OF NOTE: There are other red forms of

Phal. cornu-cervi being offered – but they are actually fma. rubescens or a cross between fma. rubescens and possibly

fma. chattaladae….all showing a hint of

chattaladae has a totally solid red back to its flowers with no hint of yellow

anywhere except the very tips of the lateral sepals, & it retains its solid red

color, even on the fading flowers, whereas fma. rubescens will begin to

show yellow as the flowers fade.

Phal. equestris fma. alba

(Rare pure alba form of Species)

These seedlings are from the same population as a select form of this

species to which we gave the clonal name ‘Tara’s Beauty’ (pictured on the

right) ! The flowers are fuller and much longer lasting than is typical for the

species which leads us to wonder if it’s a tetraploid (4N) population. Their

vigorously branching spikes make this strain highly desirable. We often leave

their still-green spikes on each plant since they can readily produce keikis on

those spikes in addition to producing new flowering spikes !

This white form of Phal. equestris bears soft cerulean blue lips, varying slightly in their blue intensity according to light &

temperature when they’re forming. Beautifully compact spikes are produced on their first flowering. Always leave the still-green spikes on these plants since

they can continue to either add additional buds or produce keikis from the original

spike & still create new flowering spikes !

Phal. inscriptiosinensis

Endemic to Sumatra found growing in light shade on forest trees, this small to medium sized species is a hot to warm

grower. A summer bloomer, it produces 2-5 sequentially opening flowers. Keep moist ~ but not overly wet ~ year ‘round.

A charming species that’s not often available !

Phal. javanica

Not often available, this strain is the result of a selfing of an extremely good

form of this species ! Very compact pendulous spikes produce small flowers

cascading over or between compact round leaves. Again, we’ve found this

species does better in our greenhouses when grown a little cooler & shadier at a

lower bench level. And for its best flowering display, many growers mount

this species.

& cooler conditions.

Phal. tetraspis var. green (Green tipped form of Species)

We sold out of these the minute we

posted them a year ago ~ but we just found a few more to share ! When

flowered in the winter, its green influence is not as strong as when it flowers during

the spring or fall when it’s brighter & cooler. Previously flowered spikes will stay green so don’t remove them but

allow them to continue to produce additional flowers in season while still creating new flowering spikes. We’ve

also found that this particular color form of the species improves as the plants mature ~ a worthy addition to every

collection !

Phal. venosa ‘CH’ (Select dark clone of Species)

This is an exceptionally dark, almost

undulating leaves with cascading spikes around 5-7” long. In nature this species grows wet all year so fertilize and keep moist year round. Previously flowered

spikes can continue to add buds in addition to new spikes emerging so don’t

remove older spikes until they turn brown. A summer into fall bloomer !

PHALAENOPSIS HYBRIDS

Most of these clones are the result of cutting-edge Taiwanese breeding programs & are plants we’ve hand-selected from some of the most forward-thinking nurseries during our annual trips to Taiwan to judge their TIOS Orchid Show. The

advantage to many of the Multi-floral Minis is that they tend to spike more than once a year due to their breeding background. We’ve actually discovered that many were spiking again within 3-4 months after the initial flowering was over !

PLEASE NOTE: With many of the harlequins & the blue, red or orange novelties, differences in light & temperature at various

times of the year will cause some variation to occur in the flower color and/or intensity of their markings. Under warmer temperatures & more shaded conditions in the summer, many red novelty-type hybrids with yellow or orange in their breeding background will flower showing more of the influence of those colors. Under cooler temperatures & brighter light in the fall to

winter months, the red pigment in the flowers is more strongly expressed resulting in solid to nearly solid red flowers.

Also, many hybrids with a heavy Harlequin influence will show their boldest and most vivid colors when bloomed under cooler temperatures & brighter light during the fall & winter.

In addition, many of the Novelty-type hybrids with Phal. bellina and/or violacea in their background improve in color intensity

and size with fuller form on their 2nd

& 3rd

flowerings, as do the actual species parents.

MULTI-FLORAL MINIATURES (including Harlequin & Peloric Multi-floral Minis):


Phal. Chia E Yenlin ‘SRM1302’

(Sogo Yenlin x Formosa Cranberry)

A stunning harlequin-influenced multi-floral miniature ! Its flowers are heavily suffused with harlequin spotting fusing

to an intense & velvety dark fuchsia-burgundy (darker than our photo shows) covering most of the flowers, leaving just a charming fuchsia-pink picotee as a halo

around its segments. This particular hybrid also has very attractive silvery-

green foliage as opposed to the traditional dark green leaves of many

miniatures. And as first bloomers they are already rewarding us with 2-3

compact spikes, while those that were cut back just a few months ago are

spiking once again !

A new “orange” multi-floral miniature

created by a heavy suffusion of the red candy stripes from Little Gem Stripes over the golden-yellow background of

Dou-dii Golden Princess ! Great compact spikes produce multitudes of 6.5cm

flowers on branching sprays from fully mature plants, each flower outlined with a

fine yellow picotee. Cooler & brighter conditions always produce the most vivid

color. The best of all the seedlings & clones of Fangmei Sweet that we have seen in Taiwan over the last few years !

form of Phal. pulcherrima that was used in this re-make ! Finished with a rich

dark coerulean lip, these blooming size plants are in 3.5” pots. When we saw the

more harlequin influence from its Chian Xen Violin parentage heavily expressed

centrally ! This is a real little stunner with compact spikes over nice compact leaf

reach full maturity we’re expecting branching spikes to create the ultimate

harlequin bouquet !

mini with that fabulously contrasting broad brilliant red-orange lobbii-type lip !

Capable of producing multitudes of branching spikes for an amazingly

floriferous presentation ~ many of these spiked again within 2 months, meaning

twice a year flowering. And this year we discovered that the cooler nights of fall to winter encouraged these same plants to

create up to 6 spikes each ! The charm of this particular clone is that the petals &

dorsal sepal are pink with the contrast of white bi-color accented lateral sepals,

creating the perfect backdrop to highlight its fabulous broad lobbii-influenced lip !

proportion to the spikes, this hybrid is a much easier grower than the difficult Hilo

Lip, thanks to the pollen parent’s influence. Yet it maintains that beautiful pristine white lip in contrast to the rich

pink flower. This one will draw your eye from anywhere !

We just received an AM/AOS from the

American Orchid Society for this spectacular clone ! VA is not a boo-boo on the clonal name of these plants ~ VA stands for “Variant” ! These are a mega

SENSATIONAL clonal shift from the original older clone of ‘Taida Little Zebra’ (pictured at top). This fabulous shift has

heavily emboldened the harlequin striping on the flowers, creating a

stunning & dramatically dark presentation right to the tips of each

segment. Same compact gently cascading spikes ~ same flowering habit ~ our photo doesn’t even begin to show how dramatically marked & emboldened the flowers really are. A “gutsy” flower with even heavier substance, these are

head & shoulders more stunning than the original clone of ‘Taida Little Zebra’ & are one of our specially selected “must have”

is producing 1-2 heavily branching compact spikes over very compact leaf spans. And thanks to its pod parent, its

buds are very slow to open on the spikes along with much longer-lasting flowers due to their heavier substance than is typical for multi-floral minis. What we

particularly love about this hybrid is the distinctive accent of its white column

against the red full-form flowers leading to a striking display. Can flower twice a

We had forgotten how absolutely sensational this mini is from when we

first saw one in flower. Sogo Yenlin is a beautiful full form dark pink mini ~ and

mated with the sunset-tone Sogo Kooper, it has given its pink parent the additional

punch of a yellow underlay creating electric pink long-lasting heavy

substance flowers. Each segment carries a whisper of a narrow yellow picotee, setting each flower off to its ultimate.

Very compact branching spikes in perfect proportion to its great compact leaves

makes this the ideal little Phalaenopsis to grow on a windowsill or under lights.

(Liu’s Cute Angel x lobbii)

Finally, an easy-to-grow primary hybrid of

Phal. lobbii that flowers with even more flowers per spike than Phal. lobbii, but with the flowers being exactly like that

charming species ! For many, Phal. lobbii is one of the more difficult species to grow so we’re always looking for near-

primaries that produce flowers like the species but are much easier to grow & flower. This little cutie flowers on very

compact spikes over delightfully miniature round leaves, giving us, on its first flowering, two spikes with 5 or more flowers per spike & will continue to add

more buds to its original spikes in addition to producing new. So if the spikes remain green, do not remove them. As these grow up we expect

multiple spikes on very micro-miniature growers.

to find so we ordered a few more the minute we saw them. With its great micro-mini leaf span & spike, it can

produce an abundance of yellow-green full-form waxy miniature flowers. Due to its breeding background we have found

these grow best under lower Phalaenopsis light. And the green expression in their flowers is more evident when flowered under cooler

temperatures and higher light. A sensational little micro-mini !

flushed with blue pin-dotting on its lateral sepals & around its column. But the best part of this little charmer is the rich blue parishii-like broad lip against the chalk

white flowers. Great for space-challenged collections & can flower more

“BIG LIP” (Tri-Petaloid) HYBRIDS:

One of the most important factors in today’s “Big Lip” breeding is a large flat lip that is almost identical to the petals ! We have seen some pretty poor hybrids in this new line of breeding over the past 2-3 years, with their “big lips” either cupped or

crippled, or with the “lip” dropping so far down from the other segments of the flower that you could drive a truck right through it ! The clones we choose to carry must have a beautiful broad flat lip tucked right up into the flower itself so it gives

the definite impression of a 3-petal flower. There have been only a few so far that meet those standards for us, & we’re excited to be able to share some of them with everyone.


Phal. Chi-Yueh Mask ‘CYS144’

(Liu’s Bright Ruby x Fuller’s F Plus)

One of the boldest new multi-floral minis

in “Big Lip” breeding ! The size of its large “Big Lip” lip really sets this clone

apart from many of similar breeding. Liu’s Bright Ruby brings the multi-floral

mini flower size, branching & floriferousness to this new hybrid while Fuller’s F-Plus gives it the exciting new lip. Added to that is the bold harlequin

influence that emboldens its striped heritage and you have a new winner in

this line of breeding !

for it – so we ordered as many as we could ! Added to the amazing sunset

color from Surf Song comes the BIG LIP from Yu Pin Fireworks, making for an arresting display of a tri-petal flower,

around 3” in size. What we really liked about this particular clone was the

flatness of the lip as opposed to many “big lip” clones we’ve seen that are

showing a severely cupped lip, something we just don’t like to see for

this line of breeding…this one truly gives the appearance of three petals on a nice

flat flower.

create new generations of “Big Lip” progeny, most clones of this hybrid are white or just lightly touched with pink.

This particular clone produces stunning shell pink flowers with a generously full &

flat lip tucked right into the flower, leaving no gaps, for a perfect 3-petal

WAXY ~ OFTEN FRAGRANT ~ BRIGHTLY-COLORED NOVELTIES:

This group of Waxy Novelties includes limited Stem Props & Poly Props from Taiwan. As mentioned under Phal. species, due

to the heavy influence of the slower-growing species of Phal. bellina, violacea, lueddemanniana, amboinensis & venosa in their breeding backgrounds, it often takes an additional year or two for these hybrids to reach flowering size as opposed to a standard Phalaenopsis. But once they do, they’re well worth the wait for their vivid color, thick long-lasting waxy flowers & amazing fragrances. They also have a tendency to produce basal keikis from the mother plant for the ultimate presentation.

In addition, many of these Novelty-type hybrids improve even more in their color intensity and size, adding fuller form on their 2

nd & 3

rd flowerings. They will retain previously flowered green spikes, continuing to add more buds to them, while still

producing additional spikes ~ within a couple of years these plants can be surrounded with multiple spikes in full flower for a sensational show to please all the senses !


Phal. Brenda Matthews ‘ES’

(Sogo Manager x Brother Sara Gold)

‘ES’ is a bright yellow-green clone of this peloric miniature ~ its petals are not as

round as the similar peloric clone of Phal. (Sogo Shito x Brother Sara Gold) ‘ES#2’

so they more truly mimic its traditional lip shape, creating a 3-lip appearance to its 1

¾” flowers ! Another great compact growing waxy peloric mini that continues to flower on previously flowered spikes in addition to producing new. We removed its very first spikes last May to give the

energy back to the plants & to our amazement they were already spiking again, just four weeks later ! So these

little guys will definitely flower more than once a year & are the perfect choice for

space-challenged collections !

We first saw this eye-popping plant at the Taiwan International Orchid Show in 2017 & have been waiting for the first release of its clones ! Producing large flowers for this type of breeding, its display is

held in perfect proportion to the foliage. Its cardboard-like full round non-fading

rich golden yellow flowers are dramatically set off with bold harlequin spotches ~ and a fully mature plant can branch readily for the ultimate impact. If you have room in your collection for only one yellow harlequin, this is THE ONE !

clone exhibit a great flower count for a waxy novelty hybrid. This plant is in just a 3” pot & is capable of producing up to

four 2 ¾” flowers per spike. And its round leaves & more compact spike habit are slightly different than the clone ‘#1’ of Phal. Haur Jih Fancy. If its spikes remain

green, they can continue to produce additional buds plus add a new spike or

two. Definitely Award Quality !

already producing 6+ buds on each spike over a compact leaf span. The mother plant we saw at the nursery was fully mature in a 4” pot with two branching spikes of rich deep yellow waxy long-

lasting & non-fading flowers. This little hybrid is a great step forward from Phal.

Sogo Golden, one of our all-time favorites ! (PS: We forgot to smell the flowers so

that they did.)

We were just granted a well-deserved

AM/AOS for this particular clone of Sogo Lawrence at a recent Rochester Orchid

Show ! Waxy & lightly FRAGRANT

medium size novelty flowers are produced on branching spikes on fully

mature plants (rare for novelty breeding) – this particular clone appears much

more RED, due to the heavy overlay of

red, than other clones of the same hybrid. Like many from this kind of breeding, it will continue to form additional buds on its spike after all the initial flowers have opened. Color intensity is always more

vivid during cooler temperatures & higher light in the winter than in the spring &

SELECT ONE-OF-A-KIND NOVELTY SEEDLINGS:

Many of our novelty or select seedlings will be flowering for the first time for us this spring into fall ~ and with Phal. bellina in the background of many, as first bloomers they will initially produce only 1-3 flowers on their first spikes. This type of

breeding is extremely slow to grow to maturity due to the heavy influence of the slower-growing waxy Phal species in their background. With these waxy novelties, we leave any still-green spikes on the plants since they will most likely add more

buds to these spikes in addition to producing new spikes at their next flowering. Some people choose to remove the initial spikes & give the energy back to the plant. However, we’ve never noticed (with novelty-type breeding) that it makes much

difference in the overall vigor of the plant since their parentage carries the habit of retaining older spikes. Also, their flower form, color and size improve enormously with their 2

nd & 3

rd flowerings. But ~ the real bonus to owning a One-of-a-Kind plant

is that you can give it your own clonal name !

OTHER GENERA WHICH GROW HAPPILY UNDER PHALAENOPSIS CONDITIONS:

MINIATURE VANDACEOUS:

All these species & hybrids grow & flower easily WITH our Phals under the same light & temperature conditions since they are miniature growers, requiring much lower light than their larger-growing & flowering cousins. We’re growing them in deep small plastic baskets to allow their roots to dry slightly between waterings. In the winter we slip these little baskets into rose pots to allow the roots to continue to grow down from the basket, our own approach to “collaring” that Alan Koch of Gold Country Orchids does with his plants in clay pots. These are mostly miniature, & a few compact, growing species & hybrids, many of which will readily form basal keikis to become beautiful specimen miniatures producing multitudes of spikes at the same time on all of their mature growths. And most of them are also delightfully FRAGRANT !

had been granted an FCC/AOS. When awarded with its FCC, it was vigorously displaying 48 flowers on three pendant inflorescences, all emerging from just one pseudobulb ! A great exhibit plant and a stunner when in flower. These

plants are now just completing their new leafy growths in preparation for

fall/winter flowering.

Of special note: We shifted our exhibit plants of Fredclarkeara into New Zealand

moss as an experiment to keep the deciduous growths plump & have noted that its even moisture supply helps keep the older pseudobulbs from desiccating while giving increased vigor to the new growths. We have since moved all our

stock of this type into NZ Moss & they’re thriving !

Howeara (now Leomesezia) Lava Burst

‘Puananii’ AM/AOS

(Mini-Primi x Rodriguezia lanceolata)

An adorable & very floriferous miniature member of the Oncidium family ! Its

long-lasting flowers can appear twice a year, eventually creating a giant cloud of

electric red. An intergeneric hybrid of Rodriguezia, Oncidium & Leochilus,

these plants remain small yet produce gently cascading compact spikes held

well above its miniature foliage with multitudes of small red flowers bearing broad spotted lips. Cooler & brighter

conditions will produce the deepest red color in its flowers. We’ve heard from

several growers that one of the clonings of this ‘Puananii’ population resulted in dull salmon flowers so we’ve flowered them all to assure that this cloning is producing the bright red flowers that we’d like to see from it. A vigorous

bloomer, several of our plants had just finished flowering, & we discovered that

they were still making even more new spikes, each pseudobulb capable of

producing up to four spikes. Perfect for under-lights or windowsill growing !

Ionocidium Popcorn ‘Highland’

(Gom. flexuosa x Inps. utricularioides)

A “cute as a button” micro-mini from the Oncidium family ! Mega compact short

leaves produce graceful readily-branching spikes of adorable miniature flowers in abundance. An easy-to-grow primary hybrid, much easier than its two more difficult species ~ making it ideal

for those who love its species parentage. Flowers first open as soft yellow,

maturing to shell pink, creating an ever changing display on each spike.

Absolutely perfect for space-challenged collections, under-lights & windowsill

growing !

Onc. Alosuka ‘Claire’

(Memoria Kiyoshi Akatsuka x Aloha Sunshine)

If you’ve always loved the flowers of Onc. varicosum, Onc. Killer Bees and Onc.

Island’s Love but found them more difficult to grow, this is the perfect

answer ! Onc. Alosuka is an easy-to-grow miniature bearing the same brilliant

golden yellow lip accented with a dramatically contrasting almost-black

blotch at its base. The flowers take after its dramatically yellow & chocolate-

accented Memoria Kiyoshi Akatusuka parentage with Aloha Sunshine adding ease of growth. This clone can flower

twice a year when fully mature, producing multiple gently arching & branching

inflorescences from each newly maturing pseudobulb, compact & readily

branching on very young plants. Unlike Onc. Moon Shadow, its spikes are much

more compact, branching freely on gently arching inflorescences & its flowers are

rounder & fuller. Also, it’s black contrast is much darker & more dramatic than that

of Onc. Moon Shadow.

Onc. (Gomesa) Moon Shadow

’Tiger Tail’ AM/AOS

(Cytocidium Hornet x Big Bee)

We’ve always loved the brilliant yellow flowers of Onc. (Gomesa) varicosa,

especially with its boldly contrasting deep chocolate petals ! However, under our growing conditions that particular species never did well at all. This little hybrid has so much Onc. varicosa in its breeding background that it looks just

like Onc. varicosa, yet it is infinitely easier to grow & flower under our

Phalaenopsis conditions. Vigorously branching cascading spikes over

miniature growths make this clone a sure winner !

Onc. Sweet Sugar

‘Lemon Drop’ HCC/AOS

(now Oncidesa)

(Aloha Iwanaga x Gomesa varicosa)

This is our favorite clone of this hybrid for its concolor electric yellow flowers

with no other color in the lip, quite unlike other clones of this hybrid ! Capable of

producing over sixty 4.2cm flowers & buds, with huge bold lips, on a vigorous

multi-branching spikes, its heavy substance satiny flowers provide a long-lasting and amazingly floriferous display. These are already branching to create the

ultimate show !

Pot. Denis Roessiger

(Golden Circle x Slc. Angel Eyes)

A remake of this amazing miniature/compact Cattleya using

improved select parents ! These are from the breeding program of Sunset Valley Orchids & promise to show a beautiful

variation in the patterning of their flares with beautifully round petals & varying

base colors on their sepals. These photos are the first to flower by Fred from this cross. We’re guessing there will be

many awards to this remake !

hybrid of Rubescence x Sl. Orpetii. According to Fred at Sunset Valley

Orchids, the first to flower have been perfectly formed brilliant red flowers on

truly miniature plants !

Pot. Young-Min Orange

’Golden Satisfaction’ AM/AOS

(Viola Nuggett x Lc. Trick or Treat)

This spectacular clone of Pot. Young-Min Orange knocked all the AOS judges out with its amazingly floriferous display at the Taiwan International Orchid Show in 2010. It was awarded that year with over

150 flowers and buds borne on 20 inflorescences, a display of vivid fiery

orange, capable of producing 7+ flowers per spike when fully mature. Two years

later in 2012, when exhibited again in Taiwan at the show, it had virtually doubled in size & since then has

quadrupled, being brought in to a recent show in a wheelbarrow ! This vigorous &

extremely compact grower can flower twice a year with long-lasting waxy &

lightly FRAGRANT flowers, their orange

intensifying as the flowers mature. Grows & flowers happily under lower light Phalaenopsis conditions ~ the

pleasure of a brightly colored Cattleya without the large plant size !

Propetalum La Jolla Delight

‘Hilo Orchid Farm’ AM/AOS

(Promenaea stapelioides x Zygo. Kiwi Dusk)

JUST AWARDED !

We just had our plant of this clone

awarded an AM/AOS at the MontrealExpo Show last March ! An enormous

improvement over prior makes of this hybrid, due in large part to the dark &

heavily suffused clones of its parents. A wonderfully compact grower, standing just 8-10” in height, these plants will

grow happily under low to medium light, right next to Phalaenopsis, and their

waxy flowers can last for weeks. They can flower any time of the year in

response to the onset of new growths, & we’ve had several flower twice within just

two months so they have no particular flowering season ! They will grow

equally well under intermediate temperatures although we grow them just

a bit warmer with our Phalaenopsis. Keep moist to help maintain their plump

pseudobulbs but do not allow the medium to become soggy.

Wilhelmara Pinot Princess

’Scary’

(Rhynchostele bictoniensis x Bratonia Kauai’s Choice)

A great new hybrid combining one of our most favorite “black” Brassia-type hybrids with a species famous for its floriferousness ! Producing the same

dark, almost black, flowers as Bratonia Kauai’s Choice, this hybrid sports a

brilliant red lip as opposed to the white lip of Kauai’s Choice. Either hybrid is an eye-catcher, not only for its almost black

flowers but also for its dramatically contrasting lips. A new favorite of ours !

(NOTE: Although the petals & sepals

appear brown in this photo, they are actually almost black.)

Zed. Kukoo

(Zelenkoa onusta x Onc. cheirophorum) We just love this newest petite micro-

miniature find from the Oncidium family ! As a primary intergeneric hybrid of two

perfectly delightful miniature species, it’s capable of producing a multitude of small

bright yellow flowers on tall, often branching, spikes over its micro-

miniature foliage, the foliage being no more than 3-4” in height. This little

charmer is infinitely easier to grow than its species parentage & flowers any time

of the year, at least twice a year as its new growths mature. A delightfully

adorable little accent orchid, perfect for windowsill, space-challenged or under

lights growing !
