    Default Mtdm. Hawaiian Sunset

    I've been waiting to post this until it was in full bloom. And now it is! Yay!

    This is all one spike. It's going to put on quite a show when it's older.

    A very compact grower. One of the larger-flowered of the Milt hybrids of this type – flowers are about 1 1/2". No scent that I've noticed.

    If you click on 'view full size', you'll get a very large picture, in which you should be able to get a better view of an individual bloom. They kinda blend together in the longer view.

    This type of Milt hybrid is not my favorite, but I keep it around in order to try breeding with it. I'll be attempting a few crosses starting later today.

    Again, pollinia available for trade.

    – Sue.

    It absolutely will! Multiple spikes in full bloom look like fiery torches!

    Very nice! That's an unusual color combination...strawberry banana?
