Phal. Millie's Coffee Cream Male
Default Phal. Millie's Coffee Cream

This is (Su-An Cricket x stobartiana) from Al Pickrel. Ok, finally a pretty good pic. I'm thinking of naming this one 'Frying Pan.' I mean look at those petals... The color on this is just awesome orange/red/brown. Really tough to capture, but this pic implies a bit lighter in color than it really is. Can't really find a good camera setting to capture it (It's a work in progress). But, flower is nice and mostly flat, and the lip has a weird look with trichromes on the center as well as appearing to have trichromes on the side as well (don't know if they keep this title if not in the center of the lip). Scent is fairly faint so far, but reminds me of an oaky version a violacea.

Love it - the shape is fabulous, the color is very cool (I'm trying to picture it a bit darker, awesome either way)

I could give the grex (ie the actual cross, Su-An Cricket x stobartiana) a cultivar name to identify one of the progeny that resulted. Should this one ever be awarded it would have to have a cultivar name, and let's be honest, those petals look like Frying Pans.
