Our mission is to provide innovative hybrids of the highest quality to professional growers and hobbyists; our plant material will always be correctly labeled, healthy, vigorous and disease-free. Excellent plant material means happy customers.
In addition to flower quality, we also make selections based on vigor, freedom of bloom and habit of growth and inflorescence.
This makes our hybrids of potential interest to both commercial pot-plant growers and to hobbyists interested in stud and exhibition plants.
Most of our hybridizing efforts are concentrated on species improvement of Phalaenopsis, (including Doritis), primary hybrids of Phalaenopsis and Multiflora and Miniature Phalaenopsis. We do a good deal of line-breeding on the late Herb Hager's lines, and are using as many of Herb's own hybrids as we are able to find.
Robert Bedard does most of the hybrids and handles most of the operations, from the lab to the greenhouse. He has been growing orchids for over twenty years, and previously handled operations at Whitaker Orchids between 1986 and 1994. He has given talks to Orchid Societies on Orchid Seedling Culture and Trends in Multiflora and Miniature Phalaenopsis Hybridizing.
