Psychopsis Mariposa Male
Default Psychopsis Mariposa

For those who don't know, I have a soft spot for Psychopsis. Great flowers, large, long lasting, and they just continually rebloom from Spring into late Fall. What's not to love right? This is Mariposa 'Henry'. All mine are named after European Kings, some weird trend that started with my first. Mariposa is papilio x Kalihi (krameriana x papilio). This flower is a lot more reflexed than normal, but still great at 6" tall. Enjoy

Awesome. Later today I am going to post pics of my alba form. I grew the spike on this one and I think the first flowering is pretty darn good. I am hooked also, I have 4 so far.
