Chingruey's Fancy cross

Is this supposed to be fragrant red phal??

Wow! Great job! So from your stats earlier in the post you say it took over a year from flask till deflask?

Thanks for keeping us updated. I have Chingruey's Goldstaff and just picked up another of the same name except that it's a mini with pale yellow flowers, super cute. I look forward to seeing your cross results one day.

Looking forward to the flowers!

update. These are really looking good. They are fertilised ( as with all my seedlings now ) with Buffaloam at 1 teaspoon per gallon of water. Noticeable difference in growth in just over a month !!!

[NYCorchidman]

Nice and green!

update. I repotted a couple into compots and counted. I have at least 60 !



this one has a 5-6in leafspan. Definitely all are growing faster than my other seedling phals. I have one T8 light overhead ( from 2 ) and temps average about 75f during day, humidity is constantly above 80%





another photo of parent - cute picotee. I pollinated this again on 30 July 2014. Pod developing nicely.

meant to add - in the foreground of the first photo you can see a butterwort, quite a few fungus gnats already ensnared. But a few keikis too !
