Phragmipedium Angèle Biljan

[Phrag-Plus]

This is the second one to bloom for me,
= Don Wimber x Green Hornet
The Don Wimber used in this cross was made with a besseae flava. Compare to the first one I'd post few weeks ago this one show the yellow influence...

For sure I will! :drool: I'm already having some ideas for it...
I will try to use that 25% yellow x 12,5% red besseae.

I like it!
Question for you Jean Pierre, When you use Don Wimber as a parent do you get much germination? When ever I have tried using Don Wimber I never have much luck.

Same experimentation for me Robert, I did not get much seedling neither.
On the 17 crosses I’ve made with Don Wimber, all of them showed very poor germination rate.
