Phrag. Fritz Schomburg (two different seedlings)

Drorchid · Nov 25, 2009

I thought you may enjoy these:

Both these seedlings are Phrag. Fritz Schomburg (kovachii x besseae) made with the besseae flavum

This is a new seedling that has bloomed for us:

Phrag. Fritz Schomburg 'Pink Princess':

This one is a second bloom (last time it bloomed was in December 2008):
Phrag. Fritz Schomburg 'Prarie Rose'; This time it is branching!

whole plant:

Both flowers side by side for comparison:

Wow! I especially like the lighter colored one.

Great pictures, Robert. I have seen the pinker one in person and although I know I should like shape of the rosier one better, there is something about the pinker flower that really grabs your eye when you see it.

Both are outstandigly attractive ones :drool: :drool: :drool:- congrats Robert.

Best regards from Germany, rudolf

Both are beautiful, Robert! I'm partial to the more pink one as well....the colour is unique. Fritz schomburg is a nice hybrid....one that I think lots of people will grow for it's own qualities, as well use it for further breeding. Congrats on the side spike too!

The second one is the lightest I've seen. I can't believe its in such a small pot!! Yay besseae hybrids! [Someone else owns the copyright to Yay P_ hybrids! and I can't afford the lawsuit!

Yep it is only in a 3.25" pot, so that gives an estimate of how big the plant and flowers are! It does need to go into a larger pot by the way.

I love them both!!!

KyushuCalanthe · Nov 25, 2009

Lovely! I'm partial to Pink Princess.

:clap::clap::clap: Nice Robert!
I prefer the shape & color of the darker one, but I wouldn't mind having the lighter one!

phrag guy · Nov 25, 2009

they are both nice in there own way

smartie2000 · Nov 25, 2009

I'd take either one. I love the qualities of both of them. The lighter one seems to have a shade different from other phrag hybrids, I love that!

SlipperFan · Nov 25, 2009

Gorgeous pinks. The lighter one is stunning.

JeanLux · Nov 26, 2009

Great blooms Robert!!!! Any chance that the one I got in may from OL is one of those?? (no clonal names of parents specified on the tag) Jean

labskaus · Nov 26, 2009

The darker one has great petals, the lighter a better dorsal and a really sweet colour. I like them both.

Phrag-Plus · Nov 26, 2009

Both are very nice! I'm really please to see than multifloral potential is there!

toddybear · Nov 26, 2009

Way to go! Besseae certainly dominates the shape.

Hera · Nov 26, 2009

Kovachii is doing such interesting things to the shape and color of its hybrids. So much potential is there. They are both very nice!

orchids3 · Nov 27, 2009

Beautiful! Would take either one of them. Bought a Fritz Schomberg from HP Norton not long ago. I thought it was so small it would take years to flower. After looking at your there is hope that the wait may not be so long. Thanks for posting.

Ron-NY · Nov 28, 2009

The pale one is a different shade to see coming from kovachii.
Is it being considered crossing it back onto bessea var flava?
