Rl. Aristocrat characteristic: Is it more like the glauca or the digbyana? Male
Default Rl. Aristocrat characteristic: Is it more like the glauca or the digbyana?

Hello all,

I recently acquired a very large (almost specimen size) RL. Aristocrat (digbyana x glauca).

I already own and have bloomed multiple clones of both of the parents.

I am curious about which parent it takes after more.

While I really like the fringed lip of the digbyana, I much prefer the fragrance of the glauca.

Has anyone ever bloomed an Aristocrat and knows in what way it is like each parent? Or is that up to chance? Is it usually fragrant like the glauca?

Aristocrat is the name of the cross .... the hybrid/grex name. So unless we are growing clones of one cultivar.... it would otherwise be like growing brothers and sisters -- different appearances and features. Some of the plants might have a relatively frilly hairy lip. Others might not. Maybe some have no frilly lip or toothy edges at all.
