Phal. Leucadia Sunset

   Bought this one from a member of my OS, and its a nice little sequential bloomer with spicey smelling flowers. The pod is from my violacea v. sumatra, and I think it might be ready in a month or so, so I am hoping for good results!

Phalaenopsis speciosa v. christiana

   Okay, first off, this plant is commonly known as Phal. tetraspis 'C#1,' but it is now called Phal. speciosa v. christiana. When I bought this from Kingfisher Orchids, it had a total of nine spikes and subspikes, and as you can see, it is now working on #10, which is actually spike #5. It currently has two blooms, one of which I have pollinated with my Phal. Penang Girl, and the other one was a tad ugly, so no photos for you! I plan on pollinating it with pollen a friend from the US is donating to me, Phal. mannii 'Red Spider.' I hope they both work!
