C.Orpeti X C.Seagulls Apricot

[RJSquirrel]

might have a name. I will update it If I do find one.



nice red flower on the bigger side of small with the coccinea.



consistent double buds on each new growth once they start to bloom. 2 times a year in most cases. they are small now but will grow to make just spectacular displays well grown.



thanks for looking !!!

Orchidroots seems to be having problems. I checked RHS and also AOS OrchidPro ... no registration. So go for it!

[RJSquirrel]

thru the RHS I need Sunset Valley Permission bec I am not the originator of the plant. I will email Fred see if he doesnt mind me naming the plant. Send him a picture of the plant and the SVO tag on it so we can know what I am doing here.



RJ's Orpetii Seagull.

Im also looking thru old awards of the orpetii etc. looking for good descriptions I can mash-up from the AOS judges.
