Nice Ron. Do you know the cross by any chance? Strange blooming time, no? Or is it just strange that mine aren't blooming?

[Ron-NY]

It is ('Ruey Ann Jade' X 'Green Jade')

It is a first bloom plant, so I don't know when it is suppose to bloom.

 

[SlipperFan]

Gorgeous. I hope mine blooms some day.

 

[paphjoint]

Yeah very pretty -- does it grow at normal speed or slower?

 

[NYEric]

Very nice. I kind of want one, but I don't know how big they have to be to bloom.

 

[Candace]

That's a great one, Ron.

 

[practicallyostensible]

This plant has been #1 on my wanted list for awhile now. Your photos just cements it's place. Very nice!

Same goes for PhragmipediuM
CattleyA will be albA

I hear this so often. It makes my teeth go on edge.

Thanks for the clarification - you've made it easy now!

Thank you, oh wise one.

 

[Ron-NY]

Paul, I stand corrected...my tag does say album

Uri, I don't have a normal colored one in my collection to compare growth rates with . But I have noted that the next growth is already larger than the growth that is currently blooming from, so I would surmise that it isn't a slow grower.

 

[eOrchids]

Awesome alba or album you got there, Ron! :clap:

Philippinense generally bloom late winter and spring.

Those are well formed flowers, how big are they?

 

[L I Jane]

Very nice Ron!

I bet the next growth will bloom then. I didn't measure but the petals on the lower flower must be close to 4" the second flower is still expanding.

Well spotted Lance!!
Even we "Gods" arn't perfect!!!
Ever humbled
