Phal. speciosa (speciosa ' Panda Purple' x speciosa ' Panda Red ')
Nothing could be more pleasing than a “panda-patterned” form of this great fragrant summer bloomer! This particular sibbing has combined two very vigorous “panda-flowering” forms of the species to stabilize its great “panda” result. There have already been two AM/AOS awards granted to this particular “panda” type strain, and we just flowered one with bold red panda patterning in addition to another one which flowered as a pure alba. Light and temperature at spike and bud formation can create some variation in the flowers. Leave previously flowered green spikes on the plant since it can add additional buds while still forming new spikes. A limited first release of this sibbing and Very Highly Recommended!
