Wonderful. BTW what is the ploidy number for this plant. Do you know? And does it breed?

Wonderful. BTW what is the ploidy number for this plant. Do you know? And does it breed?

I haven't counted the chromosomes, but I am guessing it is a regular diploid. Yes, I have been able to breed with it (3 times I got viable offspring). It is actually the parent of Phrag. Robert C. Silich (Jason Fischer x Mem. Dick Clements):

Robert,

You indicate you were successful 3 times with this plant, how many attempts were there?

 

[Drorchid]

I tried using it 9 times, so a 33% success rate is pretty good. hmmm maybe I should try breeding with it more.....
