Sarconopsis

[Sophronitis2005]

Hi Tim

From what i believe the flowers are between Phalaenopsis and Sarcochilus in Size but i have not seen them myself ? Also the book you talk about i don't have it are you able to copy the pictures say scan and email them to me if possible i live in Sydney Australia well Near Picton to be exact.

I have managed to find a possible article i've been told it was in a Australian Orchid Review vol36,no3,September 1971 but as yet still trying to locate someone who may have a copy don't know what the Article looks like.

The Fitzhart x amabilis i am led to believe has a Maroon centre but as i said have not seen in flower.

Thanks Les

Hi Tim

Forgot to mention the bigger plant i have have bigger leaves than a Sarcochilus the smaller plants look more like a Sarcochilus suppose they will grow as big also they seem to grow taller than a Sarcochilus and i'm led to believe the spike is like a Phalaenopsis in Length
All the Best

Hello Julie

Well from what i have found out they appear to be between the two parent but the leaves when small look like Sarcochilus but as they become larger the leaves also grow as with the one i have waiting to see when it flowers to see what it look like the plant stands about 30cm and is a divison i was able to pick up

Good growing
Les
