Damn!! that's HOT!!!

 

[Hien]

gorgeous, really the best I have ever seen.
most other Dollgoldis' pouches are not in good shape like this one.

 

[Hera]

I seriously have to get one of those!

 

[SlipperFan]

Beautiful! I think the stripes are stronger in this one than in many I've seen.

Hera, have you seen the threads discussing how long some people have waited for these to bloom? oke: :rollhappy:

Seriously gorgeous bloom though.

Does anyone know the reason for this cross to take so long to bloom? Is that typical of roth, or armeniacum? armeniacum apparently is hard to bloom. I have a Norito Hasegawa in spike, and I have hopes for my Harold Koopowitz.

 

[Greenpaph]

Tremendous coloration!

I don't know that anyone could give you the answer to that! If they could we'd have a bunch of bloomin' Dollgoldi! This is my guess - both species on their own can take some time to mature, then add to that roth likes warm temps, armeniacum is a cool grower. What culture does one give the hybrid? Some roths need a drop to help initiate the spike but is that enough for armeniacum?

 

[Damas]

Beautifull flowers ! Pure gold

Any parvi species (don't know about the new ones like hangianum) by roth is slow to bloom. The most notorious one is probably Gerd Röllke (emersonii x roth). I've only heard of a handful that have bloomed.

 

[Mrs. Paph]

Wow........Stunning blooms!!!

Well, as long as I don't kill them, it's okay. I've got time.

No, probably our brains got clouded w/ desire and we didn't think!
