award well deserved on that one! NICE

Congrats on the award -- certainly one of the best kovachii hybrid yet. Your photo is beautiful, and very symbolic, I think -- it is in a shrine.:clap:

 

[e-spice]

Well I certainly do appreciate everyone's nice comment! You're too kind!

 

[NYEric]

You didn't answer my inquiry.

Hi Eric - I didn't know someone at Orchidview went by the nickname "rascal". In this case I'm referring to someone else.

 

[NYEric]

More a descrioption than an nickname! :evil: OK, thanks anyway..

 

[Phrag-Plus]

Gorgeous!

 

[NYEric]

BTW, is this made with besseae flavum?

 

[Brabantia]

Its is very difficult to not attribute an award at a such nice flower! Congratulation for your award.

We had ones that came from H.P. Norton as well that looked like this plant, and they were made with a regular besseae. There were rumors (and I don't know if it is true), that he used a 4N red besseae to make these Phrag. Fritz Schomburg's. The plants out of this cross were all more "Peach" colored and had great shape (They basically looked like a giant besseae). We have some other Phrag. Fritz Schomburg's made with a red bessseae, and they tended to have darker colors, that were more dark pink to magenta in color, but that did not have as good as a shape as this one. The ones made with besseae flavum were lighter pink in color.
