    Default Milt. Free Byrd

    This is the first bloom for me with this one. I like the yellow but was hoping the markings would be darker. It has five spikes and the blooms have good substance.

    Very nice yellow miltonias. I like the markings;darker markings , I think would detract from the overall 'lightness' quality of he blooms.

    I think it is lovely at it stands Bill. And the leaves are nice looking. I tend to beat up my Milt. and the leaves are not quite so nice looking.

    I really like this. Usually I'm not too interested in these. I like the markings and agree they are just right. Almost looks like a perfect splash of paint.

    Nice! I just bought 4 miltonias, one of them is Freebyrd. It has 4 spikes, so I am happy to preview the bloom.
