Joanna,

Yes, it is nice... but doesn't anyone who is really anyone in the orchid
collecting world already have something like this?

I sat in front of this flower ie Phal ((Luedde-Violacea x Red Hot) x
Luedde-Violacea "Green Giant") last night for an hour struggling to figure
what pollen to put on this flower. I have pollen from George Vasquez, blue
violacea, huge bright amablis-type shocking pinks, Spirit House, and the
list goes on... but I just could not figure what to add to this flower that
would enhance it to make it (more) desirable. So I wound up putting nothing
on it. I think the Koreans have already taken this line of Phal breeding to
its Nth degree end. No American is going to improve on it anymore.

This is Misty (SM/SFOS)

If you happened to have bought flasks of Phal ((Luedde-Violacea x Red

Hot)
x
Luedde-Violacea "Green Giant") from HBI then you should be seeing these
blooming now with 2-1/4" from tip of lateral sepal to tip of lateral

sepal.
