Phragmipedium Faust's Panache

Phrag Sorcerer's Apprentice x Phrag. exstaminodium
Most were very dark purple brown and mahogany.
But this one came out on the green side, my favorite color!
It is huge too...

Wow! That is big.

Kudos on the good growing.

Do you have photos of the others?

Very good, unusual petal stance for this type of cross. Certainly a distinguished clone from the sound of it.

Not only that it's a beautifully dark color, but it has wings...BIG wings!

Thanks! Yeah! I love the wings too! It reminds me the stance of Paph rotschildianum.

Holy cow, that is a big one! And the petal stance is different than others. Is the one on your website the more typical bloom? Did any others have this horizontal petal stance? Can't wait to see mine bloom....

Hi Dan, I bloom only 6 of them yet and they are variable… 3 were mahogany like the one on my web site the one I posted on this forum in the past. 2 were brownish like this one;

And one more particularity on the 6 only this one does have a staminode.

And this one is having green buds, green dorsal and sysepale compare to others. (here when it started open)

Thanks for the link to the darker forms. I much prefer the dark color but the form of the green one is much better. I am very envious.

 

[Dandrobium]

Interesting, thanks for the explanation and pics J-P!
