100mm Cattleya Orchid Seedling (Lc. Spring Fires 'Lynette #3' x Pot. Star Fire 'SVO' AM/AOS)

$17.50
Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Hybrid seedling plant in a 100mm pot.

Spring Fires (Lc. Fires of Spring x Lc. Fire Island) has strong upright stems carrying 5-9 red/orange flowers with darker red lips. It has proven to be an excellent parent, with dominance for colour, a sturdy inflorescence, and blooming period. Star Fire (Lc. Trick or Treat x Pot. Rubescence) is an impressive sight, the 7 well-supported red flowers having good shape and ruffled lips in darker red. This style of breeding will deliver intense red colour, flat flowers with rounded starry-shaped petals, we are also expecting sturdy stems holding 7-8 flowers above the foliage, all on compact plants barely standing 10-12” tall.

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.
