roth x anitum

[Pete]

aloha
This is currently flowering. It is truly unbelievable to see in person. this picture does it no justice. the dorsal sepal is 7.1cm across. The rothschildianum used was selected from orchid zone and the anitum was 'Bear' GM/TPS so you'd expect high quality progeny. sorry to not have a picture of the whole inflorescense. it has four flowers on this first blooming.
enjoy!

again sorry for the poor quality photo, it was taken with my phone...

Don't often do the "oooh and aaah" thing, but that's one I would love to see blooming in my own greenhouse. Absolutely gorgeous!
