More anticipation: thaianum '#1' x sukhakulii

[tnyr5]

Deflasked mid November 2021, in sheath mid December 2022. Best part is, there's more than one in sheath, and probably half a dozen more will spike before spring. Not just in sheath, but with 2-4 new leads per fan as well.
Leafspan is about 11cm.

Survivors from the neighbor screw up? Am I confusing you with someone else? These plants look wonderful.

 

[tnyr5]

Nope, the neighbor damage is mostly fixed.

should be interesting

 

[tnyr5]

These are proving incredibly vigorous so far. All the blooming size plants have 3-5 new starts per fan, and some are bifloral. Bud shape is promising, too. If the flower quality is good, I think I'm just going to call it a day with this breeding line. Not sure how you'd improve it and what else would one realistically want?! Lol.

 

[tnyr5]

Kinda cute. Much different look compared to Ross Hella's grex. Ignore my shelf of forgotten stuff.

 

[merc]

oh i this! especially the bright green veins of the staminode in contrast to the pouch.

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

That's really out there! Neat.

 

[Happypaphy7]

I like thaianum and its hybris a lot so far!

 

[Djthomp28]

I really like it! It is eye catching.

 

[Ozpaph]

interesting patterns

Here's the second to bloom, 8.5cm flower and growing. 13.5cm plant.

 

[tnyr5]

Ooooooookay this one's a cull.

If you don't want it I will take. I would grow it just for the leaves.

 

[tnyr5]

They all have nice leaves. No one should have to endure that flower!

 

[Justin]

The first one is very nice.
First two actually!

 

[TyroneGenade]

They all have nice leaves. No one should have to endure that flower!

I would like to say I have seen worse but I haven't. That makes rungsuriyanum look pretty... But surely it deserves a second chance? Maybe it too exception to something during development?

 

[tnyr5]

I see no reason to give it a second chance when I have 50 of them.

 

[TyroneGenade]

The terrible luck to be disposable.
