Phragmipedium Carmine x Cardinale

[Djthomp28]

These are from a Chuck Acker flask (CA744). They were deflasked in July 2019. The first picture is from the first to bloom in March 2021. The second is in bloom now. Does anyone else have this cross blooming?



This is the second to bloom:

Seems like a large flower?

 

[Greenpaph]

Beautiful definitely can see Cardinale.

 

[Djthomp28]

Thank you. These will be fun to watch mature.

Seems like a large flower?

It's about 4 inches across. Not too shabby for a first time bloomer.

didn't buy that one... and the seedlings that are flowering i wish i hadn't wasted the room on... (longifolium x manzurii- what was i thinking)

 

[NYEric]

Did you forget what that cross is?

Did you forget what that cross is?

evidently.... i have a decent sedenii... dunno why i wanted another one... let alone a bunch of them... oh well the auction is in 2 weeks someone will enjoy it (probably for 5$ - glad i probably only spent 10 )

For what it is worth, I will have more of these than I need. So if you are interested let me know. Although I will not be shipping anytime soon. We are welcoming our son into the world any day now!

Darlene, I’d like one, please, but no rush. Spring is fine. I just got a Cardinale ‘Wilcox’ AM/AOS Division from Woodstream. Nice 6” plant, but the flower is smaller than I thought. This one looks nice.

I'd like one when the BIG EVENT is complete and you have a healthy son!

 

[ThienNgo Le]

Very nice one Darlene,
I am glad I made this cross but my plants from the same mother flask with yours are still about a year from blooming.

@abax and @southernbelle

Now that spring is arriving soon, despite the snow covering my yard, I am looking to clear out some seedlings. I have two larger spiking plants of this cross in 4 inch pots and 4-6 seedlings in 2.25" pots. I will be posting these in the sale forum soon. Before I post them I wanted to see if you were still interested. If so, please PM me.

I will get them mailed out between work, motherhood, too many orchids, and life in general

 

[abax]

I'm still interested and am in no particular hurry.

 

[NYEric]

I'll take 2. Hurry!!!

 

[Cearbhael]

I will take 1 and not in hurry!!

 

[southernbelle]

I thought I responded yesterday, typed it but didn’t post. . I did PM you my address and phone info though. Thanks so much for keeping track of us as promised, and for your taking time to do this whenever it works.
