Morm. (Aftermath ‘SVO Nuclear Fallout’ x hookeri ‘Black Fuzz’)
These are going to be fantastic! Mormodes hookeri has seldom been used in any hybrids and has some unique traits (ie. a fuzzy labellum) that could make this grex extremely interesting. Crossed with the radioactive brightness of Morm. Aftermath ‘SVO Nuclear Fallout,’ these are bound to be very different and very nice. I have very few of these because I decided to hold most of them back just to see what variety they show!
Each picture shows the parents used to make the cross (pod parent (“mom”) on the left/top and pollen parent (“dad”) on the right/bottom. The flowers will combine various traits of each parent, each creating its own, unique piece of art! Any standalone pictures show some of the plants that have already bloomed and therefore represent what the hybrid might look like.
Thank you so much to Fred Clarke (Sunset Valley Orchids) for allowing RustyExotics to use bloom pictures.
