My favorite orchid of all time. The first slipper I ever saw 35 years ago at the Buffalo NY Botanical Gardens. That is when the addiction started. My original plant from them perished in Florida 15 years ago but now I have a temperature controlled Pergola. This plant was purchased from Rob of Littlefrogfarm.com last year. Very pleased with the 2 spikes.

Lovely! IMHO, the best pre-besseae phrag hybrid of all!
 
Try a little honey on the pollinium. But phrags in general are harder than paphs, for sure. I don't know if Schroederae is fertile, actually. Don't recall seeing any hybrids, but there are so many hybrids now I can't keep track of them anyway.

LF my division is growing like a weed and the new growth is looking healthy and
adapting well.

Tom, sweet petite Barbara LeAnn 'Fox Croft' is in spike again. I really enjoy this
Phrag. Such a cutie.
