meizwang Posted October 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Beautiful disas! What species/hybrids are they? These are all Disa uniflora hybrids. The dark red comes from Disa cardinalis, and the ability to have more than one bloom per spike comes from Disa tripetaloides. The plants pictured are the result of perhaps a dozen different generations of crossing and back crossing, and they keep getting better!

Rodrigo Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Your orchids are very beautiful. The vivid colors and the healthy appearance indicate that you are a person very careful in dealing with these plants. Thank you for showing us these wonderful pictures.
