I love the prismatocarpa! Great color on that one!
Do you know who the breeder is? Or who did you get it from?

Thanks, I got it from Home, TEN SHIN GARDENS, Quality?Rarity?Serenity
at some show in NJ last year.
I also have a Brassavola cucullata from the same vendor that is in spike and has been growing well (it had only 3growths and now has 5 I believe) He sold me good plants (although I killed a Laelia dayana).
Ten Shin goes to US shows so maybe they can ship plants from within the country maybe?
Panarica prismatocarpa (listed as Encyclia)
Catalog, TEN SHIN GARDENS, Quality?Rarity?Serenity

Just a thought... prismatocarpa x cucullata would be a very cool hybrid.

I am not reallly into hybrids, but I could try to pollinate a couple of flowers.
pollen from cucullata?
would all the flowers fade if one or 2 blooms would get pollinated?
I also have a Brassavola grandiflora, Mexican import in bloom now and a Cattleya luteola.
any suggestions?
The Brassavola grandiflora is very floriferous and scented.
How could I pollinate? ANY suggestions?
