Lovely.

Thank you Ross for the picture of your Van Ness 'Husky'! What a show of flowers! I used exactly the same clone 'Husky' for this breeding. I think the niveum parent did a good job and will do even better in further generations.

Any ideas where you plan to go from here? Back to a small Brachy? Back on to a round complex?

I like to keep the plant small AND get a more round flower. So I will pollinate 'Annunciazione' with pollen of a very round P. thaianum tomorrow. I hope it will take because the pollen isn't fresh and stored in the fridge for some time.

Been looking at previous threads of this cross and I like 'La Prima Vera' quite a bit as well! http://www.slippertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35912&highlight=Ness
