Nice indeed. A corner stone to a lot of the superb roth breeding of today! Is this the first time for you to bloom this division? I expect it will hold more flowers on a mature,multi-growth plant.

15.000USD. It is the original motherplant from Tokyo Orchid Nursery, 3 BS growths. One division has 1 BS growth and new start, in bloom now. The others are bigger, but will bloom next year. They bought it from the Eric Young in 1989, and it is the real parent of the Val x Mt Millais strain.

Nice indeed. A corner stone to a lot of the superb roth breeding of today! Is this the first time for you to bloom this division? I expect it will hold more flowers on a mature,multi-growth plant.

It was a multigrowth, but divided for safety. That one is the single growth and start.

For its GM/WOC it had 5 flowers, FS 31cm. Three years later, in Jersey the flowers eventually reached 34cm. There is a picture with a ruler taken by Alan Moon.
