Phrag. schlimii 'Hitomi'

[Drorchid]

An almost "albinistic" schlimii, this is from one of our own sib crosses, and is one of the lightest colored schlimii's that I have seen.

What a nice, chunky pouch and general overall nice shape! Plus, I presume that you'll be trying it in some white Phrag breeding trials? 'Hope so!

Very nice Robert, love it.
what about crossing it x a pale pearcei?

 

[tomkalina]

Very nice. Do you find the paler color to be temperature dependent?

My first thought as well!

Yes, usually the cooler you grow them the darker the flowers are (and the warmer the temps, the flowers will tend to be lighter in color). As it has been relatively cool here, I think these lighter flowers are more a "genetic" trait.

A beauty. Looks very much like the one I got from Littlefrog Farm.
