Phragmipedium schlimii ‘Charlie’

[Erythrone]

Phragmipedium schlimii ‘Charlie’, first blooming division. I got the plant from John M. I like it a lot!

[Carkin]

Ooooooo...that's lovely!!!

 

[Rick]

Sweet!

This species is still not in my collection

 

[NYEric]

Nice.

Oh my goodness, happy petals! Anything you get from John is first class.
I have this species and am certainly looking forward to blooming...some
day. I hope you know who 'Charlie' is. ;>) In passing, Canadians have a
natural wonder in John M. I'd give anything to get my hands on his Paphs.
and Phrags.

 

[eaborne]

Cool!

 

[John M]

LOL! Thanks Angela!

Lise, this is very nice! It's so white! I've not bloomed it like this before. I like it a lot. Is it growing a bit warm? I tend to grow mine quite cool. Temps go down to below 50F in winter and even in summer, unless we're having a heat wave, temps get down to close to that sometimes too; but, normally they're in the mid to high 60'sF.

We can correct that error Rick.

I agree with John, how did you bloom it out so white?

I grew it cool for months, but maybe not enough! Night temps at 50 to 55 F, days around 68-72. But now it is warmer on the growing room.

Hmmm? Maybe our cultural practices differ in other ways. It will be interesting to see it bloom on the next growth. 'Hope it makes you lots of flowers on this stem now. It blooms for months and months on the same stem for me.:clap:
