Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi 'red' x Tsay's Evergreen

This phal has several spikes and usually blooms every year. There are few more buds to open soon.



The latest spike came out sort of in the middle of the plant and I thought it was a terminal spike. Now looking at it closer, I think maybe it is not terminal after all:



We'll see if the new leaf will be able to come out there ...

Phal. cornu-cervi 'red' x Tsay's Evergreen bloom

Finally my Phal. cornu-cervi 'red' x Tsay's Evergreen managed to produce a flower. With several mature spikes you'd think it wouldn't need over a year to show its blooms, but here we go. I have had it since summer 2012 and only now it decided to flower.



I really like the flower. Contrast between yellow and white is amazing. Bloom has hard vaxy texture just like cornu-cervi. Although, there is not much red.



Only few randomly placed faintly red patches and some reddish color around the column.

One more spike discovered

Recently I posted about growth of existing spike on phalaenopsis hybrid - cross of Tsay's Evergreen and cornu-cervi 'red'
All that time I was looking at existing spike and didn't even notice the start of a new one in between the leaves.
Now it grew a lot and is clearly visible:



Maybe this plant will be as floriferous as my cornu-cervi 'red'.

Phal. cornucervi 'red' x Tsay's Evergreen spike

It looks like the newest spike that was stalled on the cross of red cornu-cervi and Tsay's Evergreen did grow a little bit.
I was looking at old picture from its arrival and comparing to today's - spike did grow:



Of course it is still far from creating a bud yet:



I also noticed two new fat roots along the stem and increased size of the newest leaf.
All in all it is adjusting well and maybe I will see the bloom some time soon - have no idea how it will look though.

Phal. cornu-cervi 'red' x Tsay's Evergreen

I think this might produce interesting flowers - Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi red x Tsay's Evergreen.



There are two old spikes that are not active and one new spike, I hope it will bloom soon.
Plant itself reminds me of my cornu-cervi 'red' by its growth habit, has few nice roots. Yellowish patch on the right leaf - hope it is just a sun damage and nothing serious.
Can't wait to see it blooming.
