Phragmipedium Acker's Classic (Twilight x kovachii)

[Djthomp28]

This is now my favorite kovachii hybrid. I am looking forward to seeing the other clones bloom in the upcoming months.

From Chuck Acker. This from a flask I purchased in 2019. They started blooming last year. This is the second time they bloomed.

Wow that’s lovely. Looks to be quite big.

The flower is a little over 14 cm but I think it has the ability to be larger with better care. Hopefully next year.

Very nice, I love the pouch. Reminds me of Phrag Alfredo Manrique. I need to check out Chucks flasks.
