David's Goliath Orchids

These are all seedlings of Rby. Copper Queen.
Rby. Copper Queen is (Rlc. Toshie Aoki × Bc. Richard Mueller). The diversity in a batch of seedlings is exciting. None are exactly alike, and most show a spectrum of their parents. I do have blooming size plants (should bloom within a year) available for $15 + postage. I'll do 3 plants for $30 + shipping. All unbloomed - the surprise is yours!

Some very nice C. purpurata blooming now! One of the most diverse cattleya species!

(Rlc. Jeremy Island x Rlc. Edisto)

I have seedlings available that are Blooming/Near Blooming size. The photo is the first to bloom. $15 + Shipping - Will ship multiple plants at cost.

Blc. Nora D**e 'Odom's Night Star'

One of my favorite deep purples - in the same class as Norman's Bay. The photo does the color no justice! If it only had the size of Norman's Bay! GREAT Fall Bloomer. MAYBE a division in 2022?!?

So, sometimes someone asks for an orchid to be virus tested that I'm selling. A lot of times I already test them before offering them for sale. This Cattleya Fabia 'Lucky #5' out of the Carter and Holmes breeding stock was not tested before listing. One reason is I was out of test kits and had them ordered, but they didn't arrive soon enough. I am blessed to be around some GREAT orchid people. I was able to get a test kit from one of them, and testing the orchid in front of many people, I can deem this fabulous C. Fabia CyMV and ORSV VIRUS NEGATIVE! The photos tell some of the story. I nipped the tip of one leaf, and macerated the tissue in the reagent solution. Put the test strip in, and you can see the results. It is a listed orchid on EBay, and I regret not being able to edit the written description, though I added the test photos to the listing. If you know anyone looking for a Fabia, tell them to BID EARLY AND OFTEN! I think there might be some entertainment as this auction closes because this plant is quite rare, and is a proven breeder! The cross was made originally in 1894 in the Victorian Age of Orchids. This is a remake of the cross, but I don't know the age of the plant - I've had it many years. Let me know if you have any questions!

Check out these July blooms from the greenhouse. Procatavola Key Lime Stars is the stars-shaped yellow. Blc. Walden's Glen (C. bicolor x Rlc. Oconee 'Mendenhall' AM/AOS) is the mauve. Rlc. Clinton 'Pastel' is a clone out of Carter and Holmes. Finally the red Bromecanthe Garnet Glory 'Juno Beach' HCC/AOS. There are a few Walden's Glen, Procatavola Key Lime Stars, and Clinton 'Pastel' plants available. The Walden's Glen and Key Lime Stars are seedlings, and will have some variation.
