If you didn't enhance the color that is a REAL beauty. Is this clone easy to bloom, as most are not?

Hi Bob,

Here comes a quick shot with my cell just now, without any enchancement.

Regarding the 1st pic, it is a studio shot.

wow wow wow. bob i bet this is one of the newer ones with del dunkel.

 

[Ozpaph]

great shape and colour. The phone photo is terrible.......

Given the color, it does look like Delrosi with delenatii dunkel.
Very pretty and I hope mine comes out like this one day.
I have two and they both have been tricking me into thinking they are ready to bloom with the black tinted small leaves. Oh, well...
I have decided to just forget about them until I see a big spike emerging. lol

 

[SlipperFan]

Love it. I can't get mine to bloom!

Eddie, Dot,

How long have you had your Delrosi?

 

[Rick]

A lot more colored than most (agree may be using the dunkel or vini delenatii).

Also the symmetry is pretty good. I see a bunch of these with wonky flowers.

 

[troy]

Thats a good one!! Grow it well, rebloom it next year!!

 

[Trithor]

That really is lovely, well done in getting it to flower. Good symmetry and strong unbroken colour.

I don't generally care much for hybrids, but I do really like this

 

[NYEric]

That's a good one. I think all the recent Delrosi's made with the vini delenatii were made with quicker flowering roths, thank God!! Can you post a photo of the whole plant so we can see how big they need to be to bloom, thanks.

 

[SlipperKing]

Beautifully flowered. I would say dunkel as well. The cell phone shot isn't terrible, it's just purple

Hi Eric,

Here you go

Thank you

 

[Erythrone]

Wow! very nice!

 

[Linus_Cello]

Nice! Where did you buy this from? Hopefully there is a US vendor.

 

[Happypaphy7]

These have been circulating the market for a while lately.
I bought mine from Piping Rock Orchids.
Big Leaf, Orchid Inn and some other places also carry them I think.

 

[NYEric]

Wow! 3+ growths. a beauty. I better feed mine. Thanks.
