Looking for a picture of BLC Orange Nugget 'Kadooka' - Orchid Board

Floridian · #1 11-02-2008, 08:00 PM

Hi, does anyone have a picture of BLC Orange Nugget 'Kadooka' in bloom?

I just bought a cross at a plant sale today and would like to see what this parent looks like. The cross I bought is SLC. George Hausermann 'Carl' x BLC Orange Nugget 'Kadooka' and I assume it is going to flower orange?

Thank you!

Cheers

Hi Annette,
I looked up our records on the two orange Cattleyas you were inquiring about. Here they are, the first one is Orange Nugget Kadooka and the other is George Hausermann Carl. It should be an excellent orange! I have attached them to this reply hopefully I did this right. I am still kind of new in this forum stuff. If this doesn't work I will try another way. Happy Growing!

Lynn, Having you aboard is already paying off! I bet your records are extensive.

Hi Royal,
I am glad I can help using some of these old records around here.

Lynn - I think there are a lot of us out here with Hausermann orchids. My father in law died last January and was a regular purchaser from you for at least 40 years and he got me into this addiction. My sister in law and I now have the remains of his collection divided. Don't you have three hybrids named after you? If you are in the looking up mode I have a Hausermann cross registered in 1986 called Phal Sugar Spun 'Cotton Candy' and I can't find a picture of this. It is now spiking and I don't think my father in law had bloomed this for a while as his health failed.

Hi Terryos,
I am very sorry hear about your Father In Law's passing.
It is good know that his plants are in good hands. There had been a number of plants named after me, 3 sounds about right, but I don't think they are too many around anymore. I looked up Sugar Spun and found a picture for you. Enjoy!
