This is a cross made by H&R Nurseries in Hawaii. The cross can be very floriferous with dozens of flowers on one cane. Your plant looks very healthy. You may need to starve it some to get more blossoms.

It is covered in buds. These are the first couple that have opened. It takes a few days before the color of the lip is at its full potential.

Please photograph the plant when it is in full bloom. I have a hard time getting many blossoms on my Frosty Dawns. I believe my problem is I don't give my plants a rest. I fertilize all year round.

I will photograph for you. There are many buds in different stages of development.

What a healthy, wonderful plant and flowers. It must really like you. Now that it is blooming so well I guess you guys are real 'Buddies'! AL

Frosty Dawns don't need a true hard winter rest. More like an autumn pause.

Wow. That really is stunning. I love the colors and even the striated canes! Awesome.

Nice growing.
