Copper Spice

By Ratcliffe in 1980 ---(spicerianum x Copperware) this is one of 4 different clones I have of this cross.

too bad about that little bump in the pouch, but colour is lovely and the shape is pretty good, too. Are yours from the original cross? Ratcliffes have offered Copperspice again recently, and my seedling from the remake bloomed quite nice too.

Nice flower. I personally stay away from any crosses that has spicerianum in them as in my experience it gives a reflexed dorsal. Am I correct in my thinking?

One just has to bloom out enough of them to get some with "locked in" dorsals.
