Here's one you don't hear of or see very often!

I wonder if it's a close relative of longifolium?

 

[Candace]

It's not listed as a valid species anywhere I could find...looks very similar to a longifolium to me, too.

Dear Candice,

Phragmipedium christiansenianum GRUSS et ROETH 2001 was described 2001 in
Die Orchidee 52(1): 77; 2001

It was named for the owner of the typeplant Mr. Hans CHRISTIANSEN from Danmark
It is near related to Phrag. pearcei and a member of the section Himantoglossum. The plants were longer time cultivated as compact Phrag. longifolium.

Best greetings

Olaf

Ah, o.k. he had the spelling wrong and I couldn't find anything on it. Thanks Olaf.

Who spoke that orquidofilia is not culture!:clap:

 

[NYEric]

Wow. someone beat me to it. Not a lot of info though. I think a lot of the long-petaled, green phrags are similar and distinct due to the collection location.

Beautiful indeed
