Oncidium Saxony

[Brian-g]

After a visit to the orchid show at Wisley I came back with this plant.

[jjurlina]

Looks great to me, provenance?

[Diane56Victor]

Nice strong colouring.

[richardb]

Nice one, Brian. The markings are so consistent throughout all flowers along the nice tight spike.

[Gary S]

You did well with that buy Brian, outstanding colors and as Richard points out, very consistent markings on all flowers. The spike presents well as a bonus.

Now, to grow it on to perfection Brian.

This is a recent Bob Hamilton registration, they have been so even in quality. But ploidy may limit further breeding as Bob's Odcdm Tiger Hambuhren was diploid.

Dear All: this an excellent Bob Hamilton cross. We have received 2 AM’s so far and I think there’s more to come. I have not seen a disappointing one yet, although they vary in length of flower spike, spacing, flower size and markings.

To Andy’s point, we made a cross between the first awarded plant last April onto an awarded EYOF hybrid, Les Perquage (50% cirrhosum). I don’t know the ploidy of Les Perquage I’m afraid. Made a huge pod with a tiny amount of seed - just enough for two mother flasks - which have just germinated and been replated.

Looking forward to seeing some of your breeding in future years.
