Hello slipper friends. Attached are two photos of my transvaal orchard.
The orchard still has to develop a fourth flower. The petal width is 18.5cm which to my knowledge is the biggest so far grown in Australia and the world record is 19.4cm and the second biggest is 18cm and both were grown in the USA. This plant came out of the flask in 1991 and it was propogated by Ken Smart in Beenleigh, Brisbane.
A friend of mine in Bowen told me florafest was selling some plants recently from this 1991 batch for $700 Australian.
Kind Regards, Bernhard
