Yup, I read that too. I think the P. stuartiana var. nobilis is also one of these Taiwan imports that's more suitable for experienced growers. I had planned on getting help from you guys to get them to survive.

And also, my Superthrive has been shipped so I'll have that to help them get established and growing in case they don't do so well.

It's going to be very exciting to see what the flowers will look like and which traits it will have inherited from which parent. I'm very excited!

Of course there will be photos uploaded as soon as it blooms (if I manage to get it to survive that is).

Hi not Bob , I got this from Sapphire Dragon Orchids.

Camille, I didn't write my response very well. When they are seedlings and a bit older, they bloom sequentially. As they get older, they bloom more profusely as equestris can. The photos of Rob Shepherd's awarded plant (owner of SDO) over on phals.net definitely show this:

I am going to point out that this plant in question is a 4n, so it would be decisively more vigourous than a standard 2n. It still is to die for!!!!
