    Default Iwanagara Apple Blossom

    This is a cross of Dialaelia Snowflake x Blc.Orange Nugget. This is a fairly typical coplor form but i have also seen yellow ones and ones without the pink trim. It has a nice rose scent.

    Don't you love Appleblossom? Mine just blooms and blooms and the fragrance (apparently different from yours!) is sweet and pervades the whole room. Mine is potted, because of my super dry conditions, but I can see how in a more humid area, or in a greenhouse, you could probably mount them. Mine is just a mass of roots in the pots--hardly any media left. And it thrives like that.

    Ron, mine is a very similar colour form to yours, but it when the flowers open it is almost a buttery yellow with deep rose tints to the edges of the petals. Then within a day or two the petals relax into this pale pinky white.

    Do you see the same colour change with yours?

    That's one I keep getting close to buying a replacement of [mine died a few years back] but lately keep finding other 'chids I just "have to have". Mine was like yours -- beautiful flowers.

    Kerry I never paid close attention to that. I did see a clone that was a light, buttery yellow without any pink
