(pearcei x sargentianum)
First flowering for this little guy. Not the most showy, but I find it graceful and
different.

 

[NYEric]

Lots of colors and patterns in that one. Thanks for sharing.

Nice!

I like this cross, and yours looks nice. I love the fact that yours has a branched spike. I just wish the spikes stayed a more manageable size. Itty bitty plant, big tall spike.

Joli!

Very nice! I don't mind the tall spike, since it's also got side branches. They help to balance the whole look. I like this cross.

 

[Achamore]

I too really like this cross.

Great blooms. How old is this plant?

Thanks guys! I also really like the fact that it branches and has multiple flowers open at the same time.

Being a basement grower, if it weren't growing under LED I wouldn't be able to manage it's long spike under T5HO. So I understand what you mean.

I've been growing it for about two years now. Bought as a one growth plant. But I don't know for how long it was grown out of flask.

Has this been crossed with KV yet?

Has this been crossed with KV yet?

It will be if it's still in bloom when my k flowers in september..

 

[17andgrowing]

Nice.

 

[SlipperFan]

That is quite nice.

 

[eaborne]

Nice indeed!

 

[abax]

Very lovely and very interesting. I'd love to see one up close and personal.

I will probably be wrong but I was under the impression that Led lighting made the plants 'bolt'. I remember reading this somewhere.

Thanks guys. I hope it has a long blooming period. I like having those kind of Phrags that accompany well the more showy ones.

I don't really know what you mean. For me LED is just another type of light source. Nothing more, nothing less. Except for the low cost of running it.

Very nice!

You should consider renaming it Phrag brasiliense and try to sell it for thousands!
