Phragmipedium
manzurii ‘Waunakee’ x manzurii ‘Roger’
EXCLUSIVE OFFERING:
A few more fresh flasks just came out of the lab with some very healthy plants in them.  This is a sib crossing with two of my best clones in this species. And yes, I still consider this to be a species and not a variety of schlimii. These plants are extremely compact growers and stay in the pot with no crawling up or out. I just love these!

Phragmipedium Hanabi Meredith

Phragmipedium
Acker’s Watercolor x d’alessandroi
EXCLUSIVE OFFERING:
This clone of Acker’s Watercolor was bred using Phragmipedium besseae v. flavum in the background which always adds flower interest in size, shape and colors that are appealing.  Of course we know that most every Phragmipedium d’alessandroi hybrid is a winner and I don’t expect anything other than that being the case here either!

Phragmipedium
Conchiferum x d’alessandroi ‘Acker’s Flamenco Dancer’
EXCLUSIVE OFFERING:
These will be compact growing plants with serious branching spikes!  This cross will produce an abundance of flowers for many months on end!  Similar to my cross of CA14 Mantinii x d’alessandroi listed below in this page.

Phragmipedium
Dominianum ‘Bob Mac’ AM/AOS x manzurii ‘Waunakee’
EXCLUSIVE OFFERING:
Taxonomists tell us Phragmipedium manzurii is nothing other than a Phragmipedium schlimii.  So that would mean this cross is Phragmipedium Albopurpureum which was registered in 1877!  I totally disagree with the classification of Phragmipedium manzurii and I am not alone on that.  In my opinion we have a new hybrid here which will result in producing the attributes that Phragmipedium manzurii is known for such as, small growing plants and branching inflorescence!

Phragmipedium

Phragmipedium
Mantinii x d’alessandroi ‘Acker’s Flamenco Dancer’
EXCLUSIVE OFFERING:
Phragmipedium Mantinii (Conchiferum x longifolium) is an amazing hybrid, producing an abundance of large flowers with similarities to that of Phragmipedium longifolium.  Mantinii is also a very compact growing plant in which multiple branching spikes can be achieved in a 4.5 inch pot!  Mating with the ever-branching Phragmipedium d’alessandroi, we will see dozens of flowers on branching inflorescence’s producing many months at a time!
