Hello,

I couldn't resist this pretty little Phrag at the Roellke orchid
nursery open house yesterday:

Sadly, there was no tag on it, and the vendor (Franz Glanz of
Woessner orchids) told me it's a Hanne Popow- but I didn't have the
plant with me at the time I got to talk to him, so I'm not sure if
he confused something. I think the petals may be too long for a
Hanne Popow.


I agree with you. You might try to contact him with the photo and
see if he still claims it is Hanne Popow. Why do you label the
photo as besseae flavum?

It has a very lovely color set. I hope you can get your names
confirmed.


Anybody have an idea? The flower is about as large as a Hanne
Popow, except for said petals .
