Phal corningiana 'Fernbrook' AM/AOS X 'Red Rebel'
 

Love this species, and am lucky to have a corningiana that produces such rich red markings. Hope you all enjoy!

OH WOW! that's stunning! good growing!

Very pretty and unique!

WOW... stunning! good growing! thanks for sharing!

Some really great coloring there. Might have to add this or the parents to an ever growing list of potentials.

OMG!! THAT IS RIDONCULOUS!

Hey! That orchid's lookin at me funny! :dumb:

Mommy, make it stop!!! :bua:

Ok, I'll be serious. That is a gorgeous bloom! Thanks for sharing!

What a great colour. Love it.

Awesome! How many species Phals. do you have now? I know you are way ahead of me with your collection.

AL

Last count I have about 70 plants that are species Phals.

Beauty of a color, and Love the waxiness of it :)

70 Must be close to all the known ones. That's quite a feat to accomplish. Please keep the pictures coming!

Wonderful pics.

Request clarification from you guys. I just ordered corningiana hoping it would have cherry red colors. Does'nt all corningiana will have the same colors? Might be dumb question but could not resist to ask.

Recently got bitten by phal species bug :)

Thanks,

Corningiana can be anywhere from a solid red to white with red barring, and everything in between. Certain cultivars will express more red than others. So it just depends on what you ordered. If there is no cultivar name then you won't know until it blooms.

It's actually a very good question. Many growers are line breeding species for form and or color. I have a leuddemanniana that has a more "wild" look to it than most. Some of the line bred ones are almost solid red/fuchsia with wider petals and sepals. Even though it is the same species through line breeding it looks like something entirely different.

Very nice! I've never seen one like that before.

Thanks for your reply quiltergal !
There is no pic or breeder name, I had to wait for the blooms! And I had ordered lueddemanniana too :), same in the case, no breeder names/details.

I am not sure of the size of the plant too, supplier said it is BS. I have seen many plants (phal species) seems to be just above seedling size but with a previous bloom spike !

Thanks.

Love the color

Beautiful! Especially love the close up of the lip - very nice.

Wow! That is Gorgeous!! :drool: That is an amazing feat to have 70 species! *jealous :)*

This almost reminds me of the Jelly Belly hybrid... Tho this is certainly prettier! I LOVE the patterning on your flower!
