Second blooming for me for this phrag. This time the fan and the flowers are double the size of the first bloom. It's in semi hydro with live moss growing on top, fed almost exclusively K-Lite (with an occasional taste of fish and seaweed).

I bought it without a label - any ideas what it is? I thought sedenii, but when I showed the photos to an expert grower, he thought it was a more complex hybrid.

Second photo shows a street light through the window. We rarely see real moonlight in the city - too much light pollution to notice.

Thanks Bjorn - but I thought calurum's pouch was open at the base, whereas mine has a 'rim' all around.

It could be Sedenii; the spots look green though. A close up would help.

Name it tommy chong he's from canada. Lol..

IMO definitly more a Sedenii than a Calurum

Here's a close up. The spots are dark pink.

troy · Nov 23, 2014

Oops yur trying to identify it, I missread yur thread heading

troy · Nov 23, 2014

Very pretty!! I'd love to have that!!

raymond · Nov 23, 2014

who is this about, it was the phrag longifolium as a parent

NYEric · Nov 23, 2014

I believe it is a Sedenii also.

Ryan Young · Nov 24, 2014

Looks close to mine also

eteson · Nov 24, 2014

Or Sedenii x Cardinale?

ALToronto · Nov 24, 2014

Ryan, what's yours? Calurum? Your petals are much more pink, mine are very slightly pink at the tips, with green veins.

I think I'll stick with sedenii. It's from a grower who has exhibited spectacular phrags at shows, all labelled. I doubt he'd mess around with random hybrids.
