Here it is today... I am in love with it although I am pretty sure the shape will be less interesting soon!

Congrats on getting it to bloom and great result. Nice fat sepals and great pouch plus the proportions are very good. You must be psyched.

Tu va avoir combien de fleur?

 

[Justin]

that is beautiful! love the velvety texture on these.

It still will open a little more before it starts to fade. Yes, you should cross it!!

Actually I am searching for a good pod plant, since I think my kovachii is somewhat to small for being a mother!

I was thinking about besseae 'Carlisle' but the plant is not very large too. I think I will use pollen on Cahaba Phyllis Bailey. What do you think?
