My plant arrived with an old spike that had browning end. Since there was not much roots too, I thought, I should cut the spike off, so plant could concentrate on getting stronger.
After all I forgot to cut it, but after couple of weeks I noticed that one of the nodes on that old spike activated and now there is this:
I think it could be either a new branch on the spike or just a flower.
I am very curious what my flower would look like. This is a relatively new hybrid, it was actually registered in 2009 and has a name - Lyndon Equator Jewel. Although I didn't find much references to this name on the web, I will log it under Phal. Lyndon Equator Jewel, because, well, it is the plants real name.
OMG!!!!! Is this another hybrid from the States? If this ever kiekis, I WANT IT!!!! I am super jealous of your ability to get plants from the US! >.<
ReplyDeleteWell, yes, but I am not too thrilled about them. They all came with very little or no roots and it will take quite some time to establish them. I have now decided to buy plants at the shows where I can see them, and my favorite seller is now Crystal Star Orchids - best plants ever.
ReplyDeleteOk. Yeah, I am planning on ordering from Crystal Star when I get back from camping this whole week, so I hope SOO the plants that are off of their show pre-order list are large, as I would love to breed with them immediately!
