Panarica prismatocarpa
 

Panarica prismatocarpa

bought last year from Ten Shin orchids.
Growing it in clay pellets in a net pot wedged inside plastic pot. First bloom for me , another spike on the way and new growths / pseudobulbs.

Cool. What are the others?

Very cool!

Really lovely!

The others look good to, what are they?

Thanks,

I hope to get more blooms next year. the spikes take really a long time to develop.

Others are:

Restrepia trichoglossa
Brassavola grandiflora
Clowesia Grace Dunn
Nitidobulbon nasutum

Fabulous!

I love the prismatocarpa! Great color on that one!

Do you know who the breeder is? Or who did you get it from?

Thanks, I got it from Home, TEN SHIN GARDENS, Quality?Rarity?Serenity
at some show in NJ last year.

I also have a Brassavola cucullata from the same vendor that is in spike and has been growing well (it had only 3growths and now has 5 I believe) He sold me good plants (although I killed a Laelia dayana).

Ten Shin goes to US shows so maybe they can ship plants from within the country maybe?
Panarica prismatocarpa (listed as Encyclia)

Just a thought... prismatocarpa x cucullata would be a very cool hybrid.

I am not reallly into hybrids, but I could try to pollinate a couple of flowers.

pollen from cucullata?
would all the flowers fade if one or 2 blooms would get pollinated?

I also have a Brassavola grandiflora, Mexican import in bloom now and a Cattleya luteola.
any suggestions?
The Brassavola grandiflora is very floriferous and scented.

How could I pollinate? ANY suggestions?
