Phragmipedium `Rio Mira´

[rauhaariger]

Half a year ago I ordered two Phragmipedium `Rio Mira´ (longifolium x hirtzii) from Ecuagenera and got these two. At first I still believed in the spread within these hybrids. I have two completely different plants in front of me and rather believe that the one on the left is a phrag. `Green Hornet´ (longifolium x pearcei). Do any of you have Phrag. `Green Hornet´ and can confirm that?

While you might be correct about them being different crosses, they might not be, as sexually-produced siblings can look entirely different, in both vegetative growth and flowers.

The plant on the right is now blooming for the second time. It bloomed for the first time from August 2022 to August 2023 and produced a total of 18 flowers. Let's see how many there will be this time. The plant on the left hasn't bloomed yet.

Very nice flowers, Jörg ..... but sorry can't contribute to your question of identification.
