What's the parentage? Looks like stonei on the pouch.

Wow, I wish I travelled as well as that plant! It's just gorgeous. I'll bet it's going to be very happy in its new home.

Wow!! Can you tell us a little more about the ancestry?

Nice Rick.

Given it is 87.5% rothschildianum, it is not surprising it looks a lot like a roth.

You sort of wonder what the purpose of such a cross is. I guess you will get the odd plant that will have the size and shape of a roth and the striking white dorsal of a stonei. But you will get a lot of roth looking flowers in between. The seedlings will have a bit more hybrid vigour too.

Here are a couple of nice clones where the stonei has come through despite only making up 12.5% of the genetics. The size and shape are all roths. I wonder how many you have to flower to get clones like this.

All I know is what I posted up above in #6

 

[SlipperKing]

That must be correct David and Stephen. Besides the potential dorsal improvement a solid red pouch all the way to the rim is possible.

I believe I found this plant in spike yesterday. Hoping for a big improvement over the shipping flowered plant.
I just saw on Aussie Ebay a seedling for 150 AU! Expensive!
