Mo. Barnabas Collins (Cl. Grace Dunn 'Live Oak' HCC/AOS x Morm. tapoayensis 'Deep Purple')

SVO 11258 - 3'' pot, Blooming Size.

Notes from the breeder:

This is the exact remake of the spectacular Barnabas Collins.  Cl. Grace Dunn (Cl. rosea x Cl. warczewitzii) blooms in mid-winter on leafless plants with multiple pendent inflorescences each holding 15 or more pink and green flowers with cute frilly lips and a wonderful citrus fragrance. Morm. tapoayensis has a dark purple flower with darker spots in deep burgundy - the color is really unusual.  Mormodes are dominant for flower color, and we expect the flowers of the offspring to be darkly pigmented with some darker spotting. Plants will bloom with multiple pendulous inflorescences carrying 12-16 long-lasting flowers each.  The first time these were produced, Barnabas Collins 'SVO Dark Night' received a First Class Certificate, FCC/AOS. When awarded, the plant carried 117 flowers and buds on 7 inflorescences, all from a single pseudobulb!!!
