La vingtaine 3rd flowering

[monocotman]

Hi,

La vingtaine (MDC x kovachii) originally from the EYOF.
The new growth this year was way bigger than the last two and this is reflected in an excellent flower( I think the plant is just about reaching adulthood).
The leaf span is now about 30 inches.
The flower is 5.5 inches (14cm) across.
I'll try to take some better photos over the w/e.

Regards,

David

Excellent, compare for award size. Yay besseae hybrids!

Nice color.

Why do men think size is everything? oke:

Nice color.

Nice! Looks like it will have multiple flowers. Hopefully the sarg influence will allow it to hold multiple flowers at once. (We men also value staying power...)

Linus,
you were right.

This is the first time this has happened,

If it is the same plant as in your avatar, the improvement is significant. That's a beauty!

What is the Odontoglossum to the left?

Thanks for the comments.

Carsten, it is the same plant, a year on.

Ozpaph - The odont is the primary hybrid 'ardentissimum' from McBeans.

Sweet! You know what they say about men who think size isn't important, right? :evil:
