Pollen Parent Flower
 
 
Culture Notes from Donor: Pod parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
 
Comments: Accidental hybrid, the pollen parent was labeled Phalaenopsis leucorrhoda at the time of the pollination.

Pod parent plant: Flowers are light pink with darker pink "flares" extending from the center. Medium-sized plant. Natural hybrid of P. aphrodite × P. schilleriana.

Pollen parent plant: Plant is an old specimen at the University of Washington botany greenhouse, labeled as leucorrhoda. Flowers are mostly white. P. leucorrhoda is the natural hybrid of P. aphrodite × P. schilleriana, but botanist Lou Jost says that this plant is undoubtedly Phalaenopsis philippinense instead.
 

Temperatures we attempt to use in the lab & greenhouse:
For Genus:   Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter: days average 87°F, nights 64°F; best fit is Warm-Intermediate 87-64°F ( )

Flask Information
Availability: We have sold all of the flasks for this item.
You should: Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.

You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.

You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had.
Yield Estimate: 7 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/10/2010 )
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 30 - 120 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/01/2010 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 50 - 89 mm (06/01/2010)
