'Windsong' x 'Penn's Creek'
Finally get to see this bloom. It first spiked in 2020, just 3 years and a few months from deflasking. Here it is in all its glory, at last. 5 years, 3 months, 19 days from deflasking, 4 growth plant with a couple starts. Sadly, not the most amazing clone, petals are a bit short at 15 cm for the longest one & not twisted enough. NS 3.1 x 17.5cm, Dorsal 3.1cm, Synsepal 3cm, Petal width 0.6cm. 5 flowers, but the 5th is unlikely to bloom with the rest.

First bloom so will get better…

Second. I broke the first spike 2 years ago lol.

I quite like it, the dorsal and synsepal are especially nice!

 

[Ozpaph]

nice 'fat' flower with good colour. Keeper.

Both these catts are in net type pots that sit inside a slightly larger pot. Both are very happy with great roots.

...okay, lol

Very nice - I like the dorsal and full pouch. Is this from Woodstream? Hoping he’ll make more flasks soon. Great you got first bloom in just 3 years. How did the other seedlings do?

Great philie even without the twists.
Better then this one with great twist!LOL

 

[tnyr5]

Christ, my eyes! Put a trigger warning on that damn thing!

 

[tnyr5]

Held its flowers until the 5th one opened! The petals matured to 16-16.5cm, better but still too short.
Blooms quick from flask, good color & shape, good bloom spacing, good flower life, specimen fits in a 4in pot....alright, I guess there's enough good to overlook the petal length & twisting & make it a parent.

Very impressive. I got to see the Windsong clone at SEPOS. They said they may have seedlings from a selfing in a few years.
