Phrag. Beverly Fischer

[Heather]

This is a hybrid of St. Ouen 'Coral Glow' x fischeri 'Jerry's Dream'.
This little plant has turned out to be one of my very favorite Phrag. hybrids. It has a wonderful bi-color petal, blooms sequentially with usually 9-10 flowers for 5 months a year, and is quite the little climber (that's not one of my favorite things about it.) It also has a fabulous raspberry sherbet fragrance.
Mine came from Orchids Limited.

These photos were taken by my friend Aimee McMaster.

Cool it looks like it's wearing a pink cape with white lining.

Oh, boy, I really like that one! Are the flowers small? Barb

3.5" maybe? not as small as besseae. Size is similar to Hanne Popow and St. Ouen. I cannot say enough good things about it, but boy, I entered it in my society's show and also took it to a meeting and couldn't get more than a third place ribbon with it. I just don't think the judges liked it much.

nice! I'm not high on cute little pink phrags, but if it's fragrant I might have to look into getting one...

Gorgeous color! Sometimes schlimii imparts a grainy look to the color. Yours is excellent.

Well, I found the photo I couldn't find earlier, so I have to subject you poor folks to one more. We actually took these out in the snow! (it was only out for a few minutes - the light was pretty incredible!)

I hate to use the word, but that thing is so cute.
