Love those wide petals. I don't blame you, I would love any that has anitum and stonei in the genes. You bought this in buds?
No, I bought it NBS in early 2019

It's a good one, stonei x anitum, the best multiflorals in my opinion
Love the colors and the wide stance of the petals.
Too bad the dorsal hooding was dominated by the anitum and not the wide flat stonei dorsal.
Be interesting to see how others bloom out in near future.

Yeah, that's really stunning! I can see why you'd track more down.
Very nice combiation of colours or shades of colours.

Is there a way of making the dorsal stand up?
I suppose an iron and a bit of starch could do the trick.
Wow, that's a lovely one and the colouration is stunning. o.k. the dorsal could be more upright and not so much hooded....but nobody is perfect.

Very pretty!
Given the parents I would imagine it is pretty rare to find one that isn't hooded at least a bit. I don't mind it, I am not a fan of the breeding mentality of "improving" everything by making it round and flat. If I wanted that I would grow Vanda.

One word, "WIDE"!
Personally, judging aside, I really like the look of these hoods. Gives them a very sinister and foreboding look. It’s what nature intended to protect the pouch (thus breeding parts) from rains (water) damage, or drowning their pollinators.
I wanted to have it judged just out of curiosity since none have been awarded yet, but the rona screwed that up. Next time.
