Hey guys, do any of you have picss of these somewhere. I could not find them.
1.Phal (Sunrise Delight x Lil Johnson) 'Pine Ridge'
2. Baldans Kaleidescope
Golden Treasure AM/AOS
#2. I found two completely diff pictures so I presume it's the creamy colored one?

Sorry, I don't have either of them

Thanks Susanne, my neighbor gave them to me cause he thought they were dead due to their flowers falling off. I tried to explain that they were not but he insisted I keep them of they'd go in the garbage. So now I'm stuck with them and not even sure if I'll like them.

Baldans Kaleidescope 'Golden TreasureAM/AOS' is a well known cultivar. If you do a Google image search you will find a lot of photos of it . Here is one link that has good photos. Just scroll down a bit:

UF/IFAS Okeechobee Extension Service: FNGLA Plants for 2006 - part 1

Your might try doing a similar search for the other one, or its parents to get an idea of what it looks like.

Susan thanks, I did a google search, but I had seen two diff ones for that Kaleidescope and I found none for the first. Thanks for that link. Now I only need the pine ridge.
Actually there are a lot of "Pine Ridge' names on phals but none with this cross.

Mention of Sunrise Delight x Lil Johnson from Bedford Orchids

"At least three other Phal. Brother Buddha hybrids are notable. Phal. Brother Wonder (x Phal. Leyte Stuart) produces floriferous clear, deep yellow multifloras. Phal. Brother Lancer (x Phal. Plantation Polkadot) produces well-shaped yellow flowers with fine red spotting. Last, but not least, Phal. Sunrise Delight (x Phal. Rose Tris) is a handsome multiflora hybrid, ranging from fine red spotting to almost solid red flowers, always over deep yellow. Because of its substance, floriferousness and vibrant colour, Phal. Sunrise Delight is now being used in hybridizing. One of its first hybrids (x Phal. Lil Johnson) has produced deep yellow candy-striped multifloras as well as several that are solid red."

I found a pic of it here:

also found this mention on Big Leaf Forum:

This hybrid is blooming well for me this season, with lotsa flowers
It is very sweetly fragrant in the AM (a bit like Orchid World) and I like the dark plum/redish color

Baldan's Kaleidoscope fades as the flowers get older. I'm sure that's why you are getting "different" pictures of it. Fresh and faded flowers look markedly different.
