Mo. Jumbo Doll (Cl. Grace Dunn 'Live Oak' HCC/AOS x Morm. badia 'SVO Yellow')

SVO 11265 - 3'' pot, Blooming Size.

Notes from the breeder:

This grex was registered years ago by Jumbo Orchids of Taiwan. The cross sounded great, but we did not have the opportunity to see any of them bloom, so we remade it! Cl. Grace Dunn (warczewitzii x rosea) 'Live Oak' produces 15 fragrant pink and green flowers with cute frilly lips on 3-4 pendulous inflorescences from each leafless bulb in mid-winter. Morm. badia is one of the easiest Mormodes species to grow and flower. Plants bloom with 2-3 inflorescences of 20 or more bright yellow flowers,  and the lips are broad and flat, not recurved and saddle shaped as in so many Mormodes. As in all hybrids of this type, the color of the Mormodes will dominate as will the shape of the Clowesia.  Of particular note is the use of a yellow Mormodes, and we expect this cross will deliver yellow Mormodia flowers, a new color for Mormodia!
