Default A Trick or Hybrid

This is Eplc. Orange Crush (Lc. Trick or Treat x Enc. cordigera). It is an H & R cross that I have had for several years. The cluster of flowers are held high on a twenty inch inflorescence. It is not quite as showy as Lc. Trick or Treat but it looks pretty nice.

I have this cross but it hasn't bloomed for me yet. Now I know what I have to look forward to!

That's just gorgeous! Amazingly vibrant color and so many! The difference between the lip color and he rest of the flower really makes things pop!

I'm really starting to love these Eplc. crosses. I'm planning to order Eplc. Pixie Charm, which has a similar look to yours, but it has Enc. alata instead of cordigera.

Evan, I have Enc. alata 'Barbara' AM/AOS. It blooms in the summer with branched spikes up to four feet tall. The flowers are yellow and brown and a bit curley and they are very long lasting. The scent is powerfully pleasast and on the spicy order. A wonderful, and easy species to grow. Please post a picture of your cross when your plant blooms.

That's great, Jerry! I have to disagree...I think it might even be MORE showy than trick or treat!
