Pabanisia Eva's Blue Amazon

[SlipperFan]

I waited too long to photograph this plant. It had 3 spikes, but the other two spikes were starting to deteriorate, so I only photographed this one. This used to be called Aganax Eva’s Blue Amazon (Acacalis cyaneae x Colax jugosa) now (Aganisia cyaneae x Pabstia jugosa).

Awesome flower for a cross of 2 rarely kept species:clap::clap:
The best of both species are showing up in this cross.

Has it every been presented for judging?

I've considered getting the jugosa from time to time, but it's pretty rare to bump into them.

I entered it into the Grand Valley Orchid Society show last weekend. It got a second place ribbon. I don't know what the competition was -- I didn't have a chance to see the displays, but I suspect the judges saw that some of the flowers were beginning to fade.

I dunno, Eric. I'm growing it semi-hydroponically. It loves water!

 

[NYEric]

I kill them by getting water in the leaves!

It's not large yet. The leaves are quite narrow, also. I'm growing it warm and with lots of water.
