My previous post mentioning the Phrag. (Inca Ruby x fischeri) seedling availability is incorrect (and has been corrected). The seedlings available online are Phrag. (Inca Ruby x Barbara Le Ann) not (IR x f) . The (x fischeri) hybrid is still in the lab and will not be available in seedling size until Spring, 2017. Sorry for any confusion!
Hi Tom, no I haven't. Doing some hybridizing has always interested me some but I've never been able to get enough to time to really get started. I'd be glad to send you some pollen from this one if you'd like though.
Thanks very much the offer Geff, but I already have stored pollen from our clones and some other IR hybrid flasks in the lab including the (x fischeri). If I had the same amount of growing area I had when I leased space from Hausermann's I'd take it in a minute.
Try to make the 2016 Chicagoland Orchidfest at Hausermann's if you can; it would be great to finally meet you (and any other ST'ers that may be in town that weekend). The dates are 9/23 - 9/25, 2016 and we'll be one of the guest growers again this year.
