    Default More Cymbidium Breeding

    I found 4 pics of different crosses I did with the mini parent of the awarded plant. They are representitive of the results. The slides didn't scan too well, upset the colors a bit.

    Jessie Blakiston x Fred Stewart

    Jessie Blakiston x Sleeping Beauty.. pure color gold

    Jessie Blakiston x Sylvania

    looks like Jessie Blakiston should be used more often. I hope you will be doing some more hybridising with this plant. and put me down for a flask or two

    forgot to ask about the second one... sleeping beauty 'pure colour gold'... was the other parent a concolour or something similar? would never have thought it from the colour of the progeny.

    also, do u have a pic of jessie blakiston?
