Nothing very special but I wanted to share because I made the cross. It is the first plant to flower of the cross @ 20 months out from flask.

And this is to compare the color with besseae and dalessandroi

Yay besseae hybrids! Are you sure that that is a besseae and not a Jersey?

Nice!

Do you mean the plant I used as pollen parent? The limit between besseae and dalessandroi is not a sharp line... I used a wild plant with very good color (I posted It a couple of years ago as besseae Wild Red) but poor shape.

What the.. heck! There's a foreign flower in that group PIC!

No, I mean the bloom on the left. BTW, is the photo indoors? And if so, what lighting do you use?

The bloom in the left is a division of a wild collected plant. It has the synsepal larger than the pouch and typical dal staminode but the petals are much better shaped than in classical dalessandroi. Kyle said a copule of years ago that it is dalessandroi but I have not seen enough plants to give a educated opinion.
The plants are growing in a greenhouse not artificial lighting.

I think it is an attractive little flower.

Thanks for the info.

I love the color and I want one.

Will be interesting to see how the others look when they flower out. Seems like good potential.

Yes a bad rhot. I will give it another blooming chance but probably it will go directly to the compost pile.

NYEric · Feb 27, 2016

Maybe too warm for the roth?

Love your Petite Queillette. Nice color

Eric, could be. We moved from 950m to 2700m. Here climate is quite cool. Phrags love it but night temperature could be too low for some Paphs. In any case I am not breeding with Paphs anymore.

well done, Dad.

eaborne · Feb 29, 2016

Nice!

I cheched the labels and Tom and Eric are partially right. It was made using Jersey . The correct Petitte Queillette were deflasked a few months later so they would be in bloom soon also. Hope a better shape! I made the registration of this one as Phrag Eloy. The name of my second son, who born the same day the plant was in flower.
