Stem Propagations

5-10-2007 New Pricing on many cultivars! Watch for continual updates to this page throughout 2007, or Join the Notification List, to be notified of updates and specials. Plants marked RESERVED are the last piece available, and are being held for a customer that has not paid for them yet. I leave them here, because it is surprising how many people reserve a plant, then I never hear from them again. Until it is paid for, I leave it on the site. You may ask to be placed on a waiting list for RESERVED plants.

Phal. Be Tris 'Ching Hua #3' (Be Glad x equestris)
One of the darkest Be Tris I have seen, this one has also produced seed for me, and has produced some great progeny. Established small but flowering-size keiki $25

Phal. Be Tris 'Orinda' (Be Glad x equestris)
This selection was made by the Michels at Orchids Orinda and probably came from the Orchid Zone. This is one of the better Be Tris in terms of flower quality, successive flowering and freely producing keikis, but has so far not produced any seed for me. Established small but flowering-size keiki $25

Phal. Be Tris (Zuma Selection) (Be Glad x equestris)
This selection was made by the Michels at Orchids Orinda and came from Zuma Canyon. This freely produces keikis. Excellent flower quality. Keiki in spike $25

Phal. Brecko Dawnet 'Valle Pearl' (Little Netsuke x Dawn Treader)
A selection from Mark Rose, this was one of several plants he was saving to get an AQ on this cross. High flower count and excellent shape make this a dramatic specimen plant. Small basal keiki $25

Phal. Bubble Gum 'Schwartz' (Swiss Miss x Adeline Anderson)
This is one of the best peloric flowers I have seen. It opens out flat, has great color and size. Three-inch pot (Currently out of stock, more in June) $50

Phal. equestris '5990' (Species)
A seedling selection made by the Michels at Orchids Orinda, from a population of a selfing of equestris 'Maria'. '5990' is larger and has better conformation than 'Maria'. (Photo is of 'RBH-2', which is very similar in color.) Established, flowering sized keikis, $35

Phal. equestris 'RBH-3' (Species)
Ilocos form. The "darkest" pink color of our diploid breeders. Slightly cupped, more successive flowering. Light pink, fragrant. Yellow callus. Established, flowering sized keikis, $30

Phal. equestris 'Riverbend' AM/AOS (Species)
Tetraploid cultivar of "Tagalog" strain of equestris. Plants can become quite large, and inflorescenses dramatic. Very good (although very dominant) breeder. Established flowering size keikis, some have already flowered $40 (Currently out of stock)

Phal. Golden Buddha 'Ken Peterson' (From a Golden Buddha sibling cross)
Reputed to be the best Golden Buddha for breeding right now. Produces great color in the progeny. Established from flask in 3" pot $25 (Currently out of stock)

Phal. Golden Peoker 'BL' HCC/AOS (A mericlone mutation from Golden Peoker 'Brother')
One of the Golden Peoker cultivars that has the Harlequin mutation. Excellent breeder. Tetraploid. Flowering size plant in 4" pot $30

Phal. Kuntrarti Rarashati 'Copperstate' HCC/AOS (venosa x equestris)
A must-have red-orange miniature Phalaenopsis that starts flowering on very small plants, and flowers nearly continuously on mature plants. Slightly fragrant. Moderately fertile. Will grow many keikis. Compact grower. Established flowering size keikis $50

Phal. Little Pink Doris 'Orinda' (Doris x Cassandra)

This fine example of a Little Pink Doris is the light pink shade of the tertraploid pink Doris, but has an inflorescence like Cassandra. A mature plant may carry over 100 flowers per branched inflorescence, and a large plant may have several inflorescences. While I would expect this plant to be triploid, it is a surprisingly willing breeder, (including fertile pollen.) For me, the flowers are larger than the awarded white cultivar 'Cloud Cap' HCC/AOS. Flowers show a lot of the Doris parent. Flowering size Phal Stem Prop $50

Doritis pulcherrima coerulea Species
Divisions of selections from a population that was probably 'Selby' x self. Near flowering size divisions in 2.75" pots $20

Dtps. Murray Spencer 'Echo Valley' AM/AOS (Red Coral x Coral Gleam)
Arguably the best cultivar from this excellent grex. A classic. Flowering size plant $50

Phal. Painted Desert 'Hawaiian Sunset' HCC/AOS (Mrs. J. H. Veitch X Juanita)

Fantastic desert tone hybrid made at Shaffer's in the 1960's. You will find Painted Desert in the background of a number of good breeding lines, imparting color, size and vigor to it's progeny. Many Painted Desert progeny have been awarded, both in yellow and spotted lines of breeding. This plant tested positive for CyMV in 1986, it is probably still virused. Develops best color in lower light. Phal Stem Prop recently removed from flask $35

Phal stem props are established out of flask, a minimum of 6 inch leaf spread, (unless stated otherwise), and are guaranteed to be correctly labeled. In some cases, larger plants are also available.
