Speciosum seedlings

:hello
I just thought I'd share the two new seedlings I bought for you all to see, they are so cute! One of them even has a keiki... I thought theyed be too small to keiki :blushing:
One of them is actually an FCC ( or something ) which has huge fat blooms on a short compact plant, the other one was a freebie, courtesy of Australian Orchid Nursery.
I LOVE SPECIOSUMS!:rofl:

Speciosums are very popular over the Ditch in NZ as well.
The labels are a bit hard to read but both plants appear to be crosses be it with another speciosum I am unsure. Worth wile finding someone with orchid wiz to find out whats in the breading or you can send me the names an I will check it out on my orchid wiz for you.
FCC is one of the award categories in the Aust. Orchid judging so it would suggest the one of the parents in this cross was an awarded plant, interesting you may have a future show plant here. keep up with the good growing. (I have 50 different Speciosum plants a mixture of species and crosses)
