    Default Phrag besseae 'Bog Bob' x 'Colossal'

    The breeding on this one is Phrag besseae 'Bog Bob' x 'Colossal'. My best plant of this species so far, and one of my favorite species. It's Phrag season in the house. Thanks for looking.

    With species like this, who needs hybrids? As several above me have stated--great color and form, Fren!
