2x Phrag. kovachii's

[eOrchids]

Hey all,
After waiting about 3.5 months, two of my kovachiis has finally opened.

First plant:

NS: 14cm

Bought it from Ecuagenera in 2014. Second bloom; first spike blasted.

I plan to self it since it is very light in color and there is a strong presence of white on the flower.

Second plant:

Bought it the same time as the plant above. First time bloom!

NYEric, I will take a pic of the whole plant once both plants are in full bloom. :wink:

great bloom, very interesting shape

great bloom, very interesting shape

I do agree the shape is a bit off, but it is light in color and very flat.

I like the color a lot! The petals seem to really standout against the sepals.

Thanks! For a non-Phrag guy... anyway, can you take a photo with another light source, that one seems over-exposed..

 

[abax]

Interesting flowers. I've never seen that much white on
a kov before.

 

[Clark]

Whole lot of attractive real estate you have now!
Congrats!

 

[Camellkc]

Jealous! Flowering a kovachii is nearly impossible in my City!

 

[Ozpaph]

i like the darker ones

 

[SlipperKing]

Interesting tones for me as well.

I hope it will improve with future blooms.

to me that is a special plant. My favorite are the all around purple ones but I prefer this to ones that have an almost brown dorsal.

The update photo does show how gorgeous these two flowers are

 

[Erythrone]

Very nice color!

 

[Justin]

I like it. Congrats.

Congrats on the blooming of these giants.

Well with the second plant in bloom and first plant is starting to fade, I decided to take a group photo of them. All flowers have a NS of 15 cm. Enjoy!

When it fades you can give it to me!
