Nice comparison of sibblings!
I just happened to a seedling of one of these too. I guess I should expect wavy too? I just knew it would give good colour so I got one.
These hybrids grow way easier than phrag kovachii too, plus they accept tap water without problem, at least for now.

Those are so beautiful! I just read the article about them too -- you know the Deckers or work with them don't you Ron? They really are spectacular

Glen is a personal friend and I grow most of my collection in his greenhouses. That is how I have access to his kovachii crosses so i can share them with you. His greenhouses are only 5 minutes away.

I always enjoy seeing siblings when possible (not ever possible in my small collection!).

Love them!

I hope there are going to be Phrag. kovachii plants and hybrids also available in Germany. Can't wait to get one.

Ah, I knew there was some connection. What a fabulous place to grow your own collection. Wow! I enjoyed Glen's article in Orchids this month on the kovachii discovery, breeding etc. How exciting for you to be on the cutting edge of the orchid world.
