Pescatoria Blueberry Muffin (Pes. cerina 'Oceanside' x Pes. coronaria 'Andrea' AM/AOS)
You have got to check out the first to bloom of this cross PHOTO   Breeding in this genus is in its infancy, making primaries like these with top-quality parents is an important first step. Pes. cerina tends to make lighter colored flowers, and here crossed with what must be the very best Pes. coronaria will give superb results. We are expecting large, round flowers with fantastic colors and dark purple/red markings from robust growing plants. Think of big, showy, impressive flowers on beautiful plants. Exciting!

These will also be easy to grow and flower!  This grex will do well indoors and well as outside.  The plants will enjoy winter lows of 60 and summer highs of 85, however 50-degree winter nights and 95 summer days will be well tolerated. Baskets are best or a clay pot with coarse bark media, water and fertilize more in summer and less in winter.

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.
