SVO 11250   NEW
(Stan. Grad Night 'Let’s Party' AM/AOS x Stan. jenischiana 'Catorce' AM/AOS)

Grad Night is a huge flower! Compare my hand to the size of the flowers in the photo… the species jenischiana blooms with 14 golden flowers on a stem a very high flower count for this genus.  The thinking behind the mating of these two ‘Top Quality’ Stanhopeas is: increase flower count to 7-9 per inflorescence, maintain large flower size, bold spotting, and the ease of plant growth and blooming.   This are in 3” pots but will need to be matured in baskets.   Few Stanhopea crosses are available these days...this is a good one!

(Dimo. rossii 'SVO' x self)

Did you know that the genus Dimorphorchis has dimorphic flowers with two differently colored and shaped flowers on the same inflorescence? This floral dimorphism is unlike Catasetums which are sexually dimorphic. Dimo. rossii produces a long cascading inflorescence where the first 2-3 flowers on the inflorescence are bright yellow with heavy substance and are highly fragrant, the next 5-8 flowers are light yellow, finely spotted in red! These are easy to grow, and I recommend using a coarse well drained potting mix.  Photo top flowers,   Photo bottom flowers

Lycaste

SVO 10140   
(Lyc. Corrimal 'Malcolm' AM/AOS x Lyc. Suave 'Perfect Pixie')
The flowers of Corrimal (Lyc. aromatica x Lyc. macrophylla) 'Malcolm' can be simply stated as beautiful!  The plant is a prolific bloomer, producing 5-6 flowers per bulb.  Put all this together and you have a spectacular display!  Suave 'Perfect Pixie' (Lyc. suaveolens x Lyc. campbellii) is amazingly floriferous, with many flower spikes per bulb.  Thanks to the campbellii in its ancestry, petals are held in a flat presentation, making for a fuller-flower appearance. With this hybrid we are developing the idea of “small plants with lots of flowers”.  This new direction in breeding will give us flower colors in yellow blushed in red-burgundy.  Lots of flowers will be produced per bulb, creating pots filled with a bouquet of blooms.  The cross will produce plants that will stay small, bloom in 3-4” pots with the developing growth in spring.  These are easy to grow! In summer, warm conditions, 65-75 nights and 75-90 days are perfect. Frequent watering is important. late spring and summer, keeping the media moist.  In fall and winter allow the media to dry out well between waterings.  The plants will drop the leaves off in late winter then flower with the beginning of the new growths in the spring.

SVO 10481  NEW
(Lyc. dowiana 'SVO Best' x Lyc. campbelii 'Green Mite' AM/AOS)

This hybrid appears to be unregistered by the Royal Horticultural Society… That's a little hard to believe!  The floral characteristics and plant habits of each parent are impressive, making of a lots of potential. Lyc. dowiana is a compact plant producing flowers continuously for 5-6 months, it really is in an impressive bloomer. The  Lyc. campbellii has an unusually well-rounded petal shape that are held in a nearly flat presentation making a very attractive flower and each mature bulb produced 5-7 flowers.  We are anticipating compact floriferous plants with high flower quality,  3-4 flowers per bulb and if the dowiana does when we hope it will you might just get 2 or 3 flowerings a season. How nice will that be?    Grow these as all the Lycaste listed.

In summer, warm conditions, 65-75 nights and 75-90 days are perfect. Frequent watering is important. late spring and summer, keeping the media moist.  In fall and winter allow the potting media to dry out well between waterings and the plants will naturally drop their leaves in late winter.
