Catasetum Orchid 75mm Seedling SVO11150 (Ctsm. Penang 'Doubloons x Ctsm. Richard Fulford 'SVO')

Hybrid seedling plant in a 75mm pot. These are deciduous plants in their dormant phase(see photo).

Penang (Ctsm. Susan Fuchs x Ctsm. pileatum) ‘Doubloons’ flowers with 20,  large,  yellow flowers with nearly perfect arrangement and it does so several times a season.  Richard Fulford (Orchidglade x lucis) is a new breeding direction, capitalizing on the attributes of the rare species Ctsm. lucis.  Ctsm. lucis is a large plant that produces 15-20 green and white flowers held high above the foliage on sturdy, three-foot upright inflorescences. The flower quality produced by the grex Richard Fulford has exceeded expectations, as evidenced by the two FCC/AOS and four AM/AOS awards. Outstanding flower colour, size, and presentation.  We have wanted to do more breeding with Richard Fulford and this cross in bringing together several key factors: large flower size, bright yellow colours, high flower count and a robust plant growth habit, these will be impressive when fully mature

Imported Seedling from Sunset Valley Orchids, USA. Picture shows the parent of this cross. The above description was written by Fred Clarke and details the expectation of this hybrid.
