[Hummer344]

Newest orchid to bloom. I have had pretty good sucess with this plant

Great looking bloom Hummer. I have a Miltassia Charles M. Fitch, which is one of the
crosses of your Beallarea, but the colors on Howards Dream are alot more vibrant.

Love those star-shaped flowers.Great patterning and color,too I have a Beallara on order with an out of state grower, but the only thing I wonder is about the size of the plant and the length of the spike. (Now I think of that.) Is your plant very large? My space is limited--

Patlee,
From the floor to the top of the blooms is about 24". Its an upright plant not to much spreading. The one in the picture has only 4 p/b and is the smallest of my plants of this variety.(I have three). The others have 6 or so p/b but are not blooming. Go figure. BTY, they have a very pleasant spicy fragrence. If you were closer I would offer you one of my plants. I have to make room for my purchases at the SF orchid show. LOL

Thanks, Hummer. Our son is coming back from a six-month visit to Japan in March. In the meantime, I have highjacked his bedroom window in order to grow four or five phals. Of course, he will want it back without the aforementioned orchids and that is one of the main reasons that I am limited in my space.

I appreciate all the specifics on the Beallara,though. Still can't wait for mine to be shipped... Thanks so much...

Lovely colours!. I have Eurostar, and it really seems to be putting a load of growth on.
