Waunakee Sunset x fischerii

[orchid527]

I was a little reluctant to post this after recent discussions as to whether fischerii is really a species, and if it is, are clones in use actually fischerii. That said, this flower is the first for me to bloom from Acker flask CA432. It is Waunakee Sunset "Cherry" x fischerii. The plant has a leaf span of about 10 inches and the flower is a very hairy 2.5 inches across.

Great shape and color ! and a miniature plant, what else to ask for?

Nice one!
The staminode and flower shape and color is what I would expect from this cross.

I didn't hear anything questioning fischeri? manzurii yes, but I think the staminode marking and the petal (sepal) color will keep it separate. Yay besseae hybrids!

Love the color, and the shape is very nice.

The flower looks perfect to me. Beautiful color, great shape...just all around very appealing.

Very pretty! So this is ((besseae x fischeri) x besseae) x fischeri)? I'd have guessed this was Barbara LeAnn without knowing the cross, no surprise with the heritage.
