Phragmipedium Eric Young

[quaker]

Phrag Nichole Tower is dalessandroi x longifolium.
dalessandroi x bessaea is Phrag Jersey
bessaea x longifolium is Eric Young

Now I'm really confused

Correct, I think yours should be dalessandroi x longifolium=Nichole Tower. Because as said before Eric Young Foundation use dalessandroi for crosses before it was recognized as a separate species and then went back and changed names of some plants. That is why some plants are actually phrag jersey instead of besseae. People thought they were making a besseae sib cross at the time but made a hybrid instead.

It is very difficult to be 100% sure when the original tag is missing… But on this one I'm agree with you.

At the first release all those crosses were considered as a ‘’besseae’’ hybrids… After the recognition of dallessandroï a long list of new names was published by the EYF.

Just few more example… ( To show how confuse it could be when the original tag are missiong.)

X with 1) besseae / 2) dallessandroï / 3) Jersey
X longifolium = Eric Young / Nicholle Tower / Hautlieu
X sargentianum = Mem. Dick Clements / Grosnez / Wössner Morgenrot
X Mem. Dick Clements = Jason Fischer / Rouge Bouillon / Sablonière
X Eric Young = Don Wimber / Ouaisne / Hautes croix
X Sorcere’s Apprentice = Living Fire / Portelet / Grève de Lecq
X Grande = China Dragon / Quetivell Mill /Francheville
etc.....
dallessandroï x Jersey = Samares
Jersey x besseae = Karame

Hope it help :evil:
