Did you get that from H&R? Sunset Valley Orchids says they have a few

Well, darn! Yes, I got mine from H&R last year. It will be interesting to
see if any of those treated plants are distinctly different. I wonder if
there are 4n plants, will the flowers be bigger? Redder? Or what?


Or if the colchicine 'took'. From what I understand it doesn't always work.
They are in flask anyway. You got blooms!!
