Phragmipediums

Phragmipedium kovachii is one of the most exciting finds to enter the world of orchid horticulture in recent history. I'm pleased to announce that we are the first American nursery to be actively propagating and hybridizing this great new species from Peru.
This has been a project that we've been working on since May of 2003, when Alfredo Manrique, owner of Centro de Jardineria Manrique, Lima, Peru, was granted the first permit to collect the five plants that we are presently working with. Since that time, three companies have formed an exclusive partnership for the US, European and Asian markets to make this all happen, one from Peru and the other two from the United States.

Phragmipedium QF Kamakakilo Tyler
Another next generation hybrid, with large flowers approaching purple-pink in coloration. BS
Phragmipedium QF Loloa

Phragmipedium QF Walter Scheeren
Big, beautiful flowers ... similar to Phrag. Court Jester, but with some producing flowers that have slightly darker pouches, and some that will be missing their staminodes. One of the parents of P. Mem. Julius Dixiler is Phrag. humboldtii var. exstamimodium, which has darker flowers that are missing their staminodes, which does come through on many of its hybrids.

Phragmipedium Schlimii 'Birchwood' AM/AOS
Even though P. schlimii is a species, these were mislabelled at the time of when they were awarded, so the name remains uncorrect- ed. However, most consider these to be the hybrid P. Cardinale. Divisions.

Phragmipedium Suzanne Decker
Still one of my favorite Phrag. kovachii hybrids. These have been very uniform in quality with 6" to 7" pink flushed flowers. View more images here
Phragmipedium Wossner Supergrande
I think we can definitely now call the dark flowering form of P. caudatum: Phrag. humboldtii. This has gone from Phrag. caudatum var. warscewiczianum, to P. warscewiczianum, to P. popowii, and finally P. humboldii. With that said, regardless what you would like to call it, these are gorgeous when in flower. Similar to Phrag. Grande, but with darker flowers. These are multiple growth plants and are limited.
