A very pretty one Rith, both of them! do they have names?

i have one i will post in a few months, Pagan Lovesong x Bradshawine....a very fine cross!

[kiwiorchids]

infact, the odont looks as if it may have a bit of vuylstekeara in it.....a very nice red colour too

[Ruth]

Hi I am sorry I did not put their names in It took a while to get the photos posted This is my second try.

The Masdevallia is called Susan

The odontoglossum is oda' Petite Lace' x Leysa Bestawon AM/AOS The red could come from a related species called cochlioda it has a small fpower and is a stunning red the cross with odonoglossum is called odontioda .Vuylstekeara is {odontoglossum x cochlioda x miltonia] so you could be right.

[kiwiorchids]

yes, i have a few odont intergenerics too, such as Vuylstekeara crosses (i wish i had a true one, like 'Cambria Plush') Maclellanara (Brassia x Odontoglossum x Oncidium), Aliceara (Brassia x Miltonia x Oncidium), Beallara (Brassia x Cochlioda x Miltonia x Odontoglossum), and one of my favorites, Mac. Pagan Lovesong x Oda Bradshawine. its coming into spike now, so i will post some pics
