peloric phals

Here's my one and only. Phal. Flower Child 'Carmela'

hard to find one who offers a peloric as a stock item for sure. Big Leaf Orchids offers 2 of his creations and he has 1 of each. Dont faint if you go look at how much. Peter Lins stuff is big time. Clown Alley Orchids has 1 he offers of his own creation. So I know where 3 in the whole USA are..Total of 3. and they all in Texas so yes hard to find and dont you think that makes them even more special? With that said it could also be why they arent accepted bec of the fact that they cant be reproduced at will bec from what I have been reading, several generations of blooms an then bamm you got a regular phal again..Also the introduction of a plant overstimulated by hormones to induce peloria isnt a process of growing habit as much as dumb luck.

I'm sure I saw one when looking at the Euro vendors for the project plants... I can't remember which one it was but hopefully I can find it again (and they still have it )

Edit: Found them Schwerter Orchideenzucht - Das Orchideen Zentrum Westfalens it's a search link, so hopefully it'll work. If not, pop peloric into the search box

wow I can actually make enough sense of it to read it

Doritis pulcherrima "Champonensis" seems to be in a lot of mini Dtps pelorics, 2 variations of it as parents in mine. I think I want a larger one now as those are great looking plants! Its a good thing I cant order from overseas

I found this Phal. at Krogers last year and both stems were peloric. It has two flower spikes again this year and I guess I'll see in a month or so if it is going to have peloric flowers again.

In fact I have something interesting witnessed. I didn't dare to buy it but saw a phal at a supermarket and took pictures. Not only on the same plant but on the same stem i saw different flowers! On one side they were peloric on the other side normal. Check it out! I couldn't explain it.







I also happen to have 2 peloric phals at home hope you like them!

I have a peloric phal in spike and as soon as it blooms I will post some pics. I think peloric orchids are fantastic.
