Cool! Has the coloring and lip of the P. schilleriana but the form of the Renanthera. Looks like the leaves also have some of the schilleriana mottling too!

Are the leaves mottled?
Looks pretty dainty but love the lip and coloring as well.

Looking MUCH better. I hope the shape will keep improving because it's a very interesting looking hybrid.  |

Neat cross, like the speckling on the flower. Better shape in future flowering.

Beautiful!!  The shape is alreay a huge improvement, there's a lot of potential for some really great blooms. Neat how it kept all the schillie characteristics except the shape.

Yes  Better shaped 2nd flower and will probably get better and better. Love your leaves they are ace! I never manage to 'keep' the leaves of my schil as nicely patterned - they fade... but it still flowers once a year. Anyone have any 'tips'?
Keep us posted, Thanks! |
