Phragmipedium Green Hornet

[Phrag-Plus]

It is parcei x longifolium var. hincksianum; on that one I did use the reddish form of longifolium... And here are the results.... We should call them Red Hornet!

I really like that one!

Jean-Pierre,

If you have anything against the first one, you can send it my way.

They're all nice. BTW what was the pearcei like that you used? Was it also red?

No! it is a straight green one... The coloration come from the longifolium var. hincksianum...

Wow! #3 is the best in my opinion as well. Look at the candy stripes in the synsepal! Nice!

 

[Greenpaph]

I agree! Definitely #3!

Thank you for that info, Jean-Pierre. I'm not familiar with the variety hincksianum and was wondering if (and now am surprised) it could "run over", colorwise, the pearcei to that extent. Wonder what would happen if you put in on PK?

Can't stand to use PK in my breeding program! Maybe next year?

Charlie C,
I posted some time back my plant of hincksianum. You'll see more color in the dorsal then the logifolium varity.

Rick H,

Thanks for the link. I'm sure I read it and most likely found it interesting at the time (because I do now), but it had fallen from memory.

And Jean-Pierre I'll look forward to seeing yours. Good luck with your ongoing breeding with this one. It seems like it has a lot of good genes to pass on.
