Hi All,
I just got back from the nursery and I thought you might like some new flowers to look at. The orange flower is Mighty Sunset 'Floracultura' and the White one is Grand Master 'Flash' The Grand Master 'Flash' is a chance white flower out of a yellow crossing.

Ciao
Jeff

Nice Blooms Jeff
I assume you got the Grand Master from Loren's cross of

Cym. Lemon Butter 'Solana Gold' x Cym. Rozel Bay 'Mont Millais' FCC/RHS

No?

Thanks for posting

Yes Bob, The Grand Master is the Loren Cross. I bought from a hobbyist that wanted a yellow flower not a white flower and I was happy to take it off his hands for $15.00! How's the season going over there? Are to coming to Santa Barbara for the show?

Hi Jeff,
Both cymbidiums look great to me. Looks like you got a good buy on the Grand Master. I would have give twice that much at least. Mine is growing but has not bloomed yet - it was a 6 in seedling. Hope mine has as good a shape.

Loren said the cross has great shape. But, he was very suprized to see a white come out of the cross.
