FYI, they are Rlc (Rhyncholaeliocattleya), not Pot (Potinara) these days.

Eye-catching.

thanks Ray :). That makes it easier, just call em all Rlc's.

"Potinara" IMO, kind of distinguished them as small mini catts. Now they are just piled up with the rest of the endless orchid catalog of plant name changes.

I am in the habit of copying and pasting tags. I dont look any further than the tag. When they start changing the names on the tags I will fall in line :)

It's really nice! I feel like it's a perfect 50/50 between the labiate look and the bifoliate look!

Don't know how I missed this. Really is quite nice. Question: How big is the pot? Second question: where did you find the hanger?

RJSquirrel 08-24-2022 10:59 AM

its 4 inch clay but it has the 2 inch plastic pot inside it holding the plant. The catts came in 2 inch plastic pots and I have not moved them, but they were tipsy so I had to add support pots. :)

The hanger came from Home Depot and I cant find them anymore. They hold 4 inch clay pots with a rim. I want about 10 more. I love em just cant find em anymore. If I locate some I let ya know.

:waving

RJ, plant doesn't have to be awarded to be named. You could ask Fred if he has plans to name the grex himself, as the originator he has first choice. But if he isn't planning on it, and gives you permission, you can register it. He does so many crosses, he only registers the ones that he thinks are best. (The RHS fee is quite modest but when you have hundreds of them, it adds up) So just ask... chances are that he'll say "yes" . . and the process with the RHS is quite easy.

thanks for that wee I can name a plant!!. :waving

more hanger pic so you can see them. heavy gauge 1/4 inch steel. They can get heavy with 3 big pots in em so I hang em with toggles or molly bolts.
