Default Dendrobium Gerald McCraith 1

Thanks John.
Engae is a high altitude plant - should breed cold tolerance to its progeny.
Convolutum might be high/cold also? Phil Spence has done a mighty lot with
PNG species and hybrids.

And a lovely cross it is!

Cheers

Cant find it Diana. Will have to find the correct spelling for MacRaith /
McCraith? for a start. Am sure that Dend. convolutum is involved and
perhaps Dend. engae.
