Here is one of my first cross = Sorcerer's Apprentice x Sedenii
Again I would like to show the variability you can get in the same seedpod;

Lovely! I must say I'm very partial to these peachy pink phrags!

I like #2 best out of the children.

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Yup, I think I love the pinky-peachy ones best too. :drool:

 

[SlipperFan]

All are nice, but I'm liking #3 best.

 

[Gilda]

They are all beautiful !! :clap: I love your comparison photos..a lot of new slipper growers do not know how much the "children" can vary .

Very nice! Thanks for posting multiples of the same cross to see the variety. I like #2.
What clones did you use for this cross? The list I got from you says you used Sedenii Leuchorodum - what is this, and is that what you used here?

Hi Kevin, this is the one I have made with my Sorcerer’s Apprentice ‘Green Fellow' x Sedenii Leuchorodum, I’ve got that plant from an old collection and never change the tag... Is it a real Leuchorodum or not? I don’t like to change tag names especially with those old crosses, you never know what they really are and can't be sure. I've seen too much confusion and mislabeling one.... What I’m certain of, it is a Sedenii with whitish coloration.

Leuchorodum was registered by Veitch in 1881 using harwegii x schlimii, depending on the taxonomist and decade (grouper or lumper) hartwegii was considered as a longifolium variety, now they consider hartwegii as a separate species and use just Leuchorodum for the cross...? Is it or not?
Just to add more confusion in the Phrags world...

 

[Kevin]

Very interesting. Thanks.
