only things these small flowers are missing is scent

can you breed scent into an orchid?

Fred Clarke talked to our Society. He pointed out most of the red color comes from Sophronitis coccinea and various rupicolous Laelias. These are hummingbird pollinated so they don't need any scent.

Beautiful shape and colour. How old is the plant?

I've recently bought a couple with Virginia Dickey as a parent.
One crossed with Sc. Beauford 'Hartford's Elwood', the other is crossed with Slc. Circle of life 'Red Halo'
If mine turn out anything like yours I will be very happy.
Although the Elwood cross could be anything from yellow to red, so a bit of a surprise with that one.

yes lots of coccinea in all these little ones. This one is probably a few years from seed. They grow fast and give you instant joy growing them.

makes sense to hummingbirds always like red flowers..
