And the site reads that you may not (probably won't) get ones just like
'Gulfstream Blue'. Of course they phrase it that you may get something
better....

HP's Phal. violacea ('Gulfstream Blue' JC/AOS x self) is every bit as
beautiful as he claims. He's against meristem of these plants but now
offers
a flask of 5-6 selfed seedlings for $150. The blue of Gulfstream Blue is
fantastic. Get one for next year's cross. That's HP Norton at
www.Orchidview.com for those who didn't know.

Well it is that time of the year again to try and cross two nice
Phalaenopsis violacea coerulea orchids I have been working with for the
last
couple of summers now. The pod parent this summer will be a mericlone
of
Joseph Wu's "Joy" from Taiwan I acquired earlier this year. It is
blooming
now and looks like this

The coerulea is on the right side. I have included a regular violacea
in
the picture on the left just to see/test the standard magenta
coloration.

My question to you is this... do you know of any better coerulea
clones/specimens than this? If so, I would like to see the picture or
hear
about it.
