Phrag Ainsworthii 'Pine Knot'

[bcostello]

I saved this poor little phrag on it's last leg from an estate sale for $1. It really made a miraculous comeback. I've read some different opinions on the name. Anybody know the correct name for this now?

Very pretty!

As roezlii is a variety of longifolium, this hybrid is really Calurum (longifolium x Sedenii). Is that what you meant about the name?

Nice full dorsal and petals - I like their pale color as well. Personally, I wish it were named "ain'tsworth" though...:rollhappy:

Anisworthii and Calurum are pretty similar (syn.), both should have the caracteristic longifolium horns each side of the pouch... This one is looking much more like a Sedenii for me...

Calurum, Sedenii would be darker and have longer lateral petals.

Calurum, Sedenii would be darker and have longer lateral petals.

Sedenii Leuchorodum do have the same coloration as this one...
