Even though it isn't awarded, 'Sunshine' is the best clone of any Rachel Kirk I have grown. This flower measures 11.1-cm wide. Overall, fairly easy to grow.

It's a beauty! I've seen many awarded plants that don't look as good as this one.
 
I love the orangey phrags but I don't see too many of them. I know that Beuaport is sometimes orange but it is difficult to find. I love yours.
 
This is an orchid that my grandfather HP Norton named after me

Nice to meet you and welcome to SlipperTalk.

Your namesake Phrag has been on my wish list for years and years. It's an incredibly beautiful hybrid that's not offered much anymore these days.

I'm curious, how do you feel when you see your name pop up in sentences like "the best clone of any Rachel Kirk I have grown"? It'd probably make me chuckle to see my name used that way, even if I was completely aware of the context.
