Phrag Desormes 'Arbac'

[Gilda]

I 've never heard of this one. The X is (Hanne Popow x Sorcerers' Apprentice)
I think I like it .....Sorry about the fungicide on the leaves...

 

[Linus_Cello]

Hopefully it has the SA trait of carrying multiple flowers.

Lovely.

 

[Paphluvr]

That's nice, Gilda. I particularly like the red margins of the petals against the yellow center and, of coarse, the spotting on the pouch.

 

[NYEric]

Yay besseae hybrids!

 

[abax]

Really nice pouch!

How do you use fongicde

I use Daconil as a foliar or direct spray .

Tremendous variation with this cross. Here are the 2 I have had in bloom in the last few years.

 

[troy]

Beautiful cross!!! All the variations are nice!!! Complete with potential pollinater in action

 

[NYEric]

All nice, thanks for sharing.

 

[Gilda]

So different ! Thanks to all for you comments and looking !

 

[Ozpaph]

very interesting that there is such variation

 

[Achamore]

very interesting that there is such variation

I agree. One of the more variable crosses...?

 

[eaborne]

I suspect Gilda's was made with a flavum Hanne Popow as there is noticeable yellow in the flower?

 

[Linus_Cello]

Oh, and you're sure it's not "Arbec"? (not Arbac? Arbec would make more sense since Roger Cole of Arbec made and named the first Sorcerer's Apprentice cross.)

 

[Gilda]

I'm sure your right about the name...the tag
is in pencil ,not my writing but my reading of the writing.

 

[SlipperFan]

Wow -- they don't look like they could be the same cross.
