    Default Sarcochilus Burgundy on Ice

    These plants are almost as good as doing your own crosses,because of out of a flask you can get a lot of different markings.Like these three which came out of the same flask.

    I love the last one, just beautiful. The first one is not bad either ...
    I like the idea of seedlings from the same cross having such distinct variations in patterns.
    Are there some repeats or are they all different from one another?

    Most come out like the last but with a few random spots part way out on the sepal and there has been a couple of full reds which are when the spots run together.

    With seed crosses it is always interesting to see the variation
