Favorite FCC Orchids!

[Clawhammer]

I've been redirecting orphaned dating and drinking money into my orchid collection during the coronavirus lockdown. I made room for a few more plants this weekend and I want to bolster my collection of FCC plants.

Suggestions welcome for all orchid types.

Does anyone know the highest scoring orchid ever?

what a cool and different way of looking at collecting.

Is there a list of all of them somewhere?

forgive my ignorance, i don't know about judging etc

95 is the highest score listed for a Phal. Any higher in other families?

The highest I could find is Vanda sanderiana ‘Kiliwehi’ 98 points, 1952.

Willowbrook is probably a hybrid. Not sure if that matters to you though!

I haven't got a RHS awards database, and not sure if the following can actually be verified or properly checked ------ whether the award details are accurate or not for :

Where did you get your Walton Grange? I want it badly, and I can find some slefings of it, but I can't find the original Walton Grange anywhere. Do you remember how you got yours?

I got mine from Waldor, which apparently still has some selfings available.
