Hybrid seedling plant in a 50mm tube.

Lc. Mari's Magic (Mari's Song x Tokyo Magic) is one of my favourite hybrids with attractive white flowers, with wide flared, yellow petals and red tips, it’s an eye-catching combination.  Slc. Candy Sparks (Mem. Trudi Marsh x Angel's Fantasy) is a true mini-Catt - plants are just 6” tall – the flowers are beautifully flared in red and yellow, and flower twice a year.  Candy Sparks has produced many fine mini-Catt hybrids, and it’s used frequently in this year’s list.  In the cross we are testing the effect of a compact Catt will pair with a mini-Catt. We know from previous experience that plants will be 6-8” tall, flowering first in 3” pots and maturing in 4” pots, with 3-5 flowers displayed just above the foliage.  The flower colour outcome is harder to predict. We are expecting flares, but they will come in a range of colours, many will be red and yellow other yellow, pink and possibly some lavender colours. 

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.
