Like many ST members, I couldn't resist... I bought this popular cross last spring. First blooming.

Yay besseae hybrids!

Very nice!

Longifolium x delassandroi. Lovely. Should branch and produce many flowers at the same time. The most I had was seven blooms on one spike all open at the same time. Unfortunately I have lost the plant through crown rot but I do have my pics of it,

Nice color. I bet this is or will be a monster of a plant when throws side growths.

Very nice. I like how the yellow in these red hybrids turn into a warmer shade as they age, thus making the older flowers appear a warmer red.

Sweet!

I'd call that color Watermelon Red and it just looks juicy and beautiful.

I got two of these, and neither of them held both flowers simultaneously...

Erythrone · Dec 15, 2014

Thank you everybody! I must say I was surprised having 2 flowers. And they are on the same stem since many days. The plant is already branching too. Think I got a very good plant.

That's because you don't have Eau Canadienne!

Maybe but, as I already said, it could be because I speak French to my plants...

oke:

An orchid whisperer! I can guess what you're saying to them:

"This is the growing area, that's the compost heap, and that's the trash bin. Any questions?" But all in French of course.
