Ctsm. Richard Fulford 'SVO' x Ctsm. Lata Laxman 'SVO' AM/AOS

SVO 11106 - 3'' pot, Blooming Size.

Notes from the breeder:

Richard Fulford (Orchidglade x lucis) is a new breeding direction, capitalizing on the attributes of the rare species Ctsm. lucis 3214. Ctsm. lucis is a large-growing species that produces 15-20 green and white flowers held high above the foliage on sturdy, three-foot upright inflorescences. The flowers produced by the grex Richard Fulford have exceeded expectations, as evidenced by the two FCC/AOS and four AM/AOS awards. Don't take my word for it - take a look at this photo of Richard Fulford 'SVO' and note the outstanding flower color and size and the sturdy stem.  Just as impressive is Lata Laxman (Ctsm. Frilly Doris x Ctsm. José Abalo), which blooms with strong stems of 15 or more, large heavy flowers. This  cross is a breeding direction we have been pursuing for some time: plants with straight, upright  inflorescences. We believe the ancestry of this grex creates the potential to achieve this goal. These will be large, robust plants. The thick flower stems will be upright and arched due to the flower weight, and staking early will help the inflorescence harden in an upright position, displaying the flowers well above the foliage. Flowers will be yellow and spotted with heavy substance. Mature plants will be exceptionally nice.
