Hybrid seedling plant in a 50mm tube. Lc. Magic Bell

The cross was originally made at Stewart Orchids.  I always admired this grex but was unable to get any plants for my collection, so I made the cross myself!  The flower quality of the loddigesii is off the charts, big flowers, with very wide petals and 7 flowers per stem. Trick or Treat (L. Icarus x Lc. Chit Chat) is another famous Stewart’s plant it produces impressive heads of 15 or more star-orange flowers.  These parents used to remake Magic Bell are both high-flower-count plants, expect the offspring to flower with as many with 9-15 blooms per stem, flowers will be multi-coloured lavender-pink with darker lavender-pink splashes and brilliant golden tips.  Excellent plant vigour and very interesting flower colour possibilities!  

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.
