Blu Llama Inc.
Flask List, Spring 2010

All of our flasks are made with DRY SEED and reflasked at least twice to ensure rapid growth and strong seedlings.

C. loddigesii 'MM's Sherpa' x C. Bouquet
- The Lc. Bouquet is fuchsia with a dark magenta lip! Expecting very good substance, four or more flowers per stem, some will have yellow lips. An improved C. Humming Bird. Limited $50

C. loddigesii alba 'Mary-Margaret’s Sherpa' X C. Hawaiian Wedding Song 'Virgin' HCC/AOS
- A cocktail orchid, four or more white flowers of heavy substance per stem. Very easy growers. $20

C. Pearl Harbor 'Orchidglade' AM/AOS x C. harrisoniana 'Volcano Queen' AM/AOS
- Expecting pinks of heavy substance, with contrasting yellow lips. These should be large flowers, 2-3 per stem and well presented. $20

Blc Chunyeah 'Good Life' AM/AOS X C. loddigesii alba 'Mary-Margaret’s Sherpa'
- A prospective cross, expecting triploid plants with intense fuchsia/pink tepals and a contrasting shocking yellow lip fading to cream at the edges. This is an improved C. Mrs. Pitt. $25

C. Pearl Harbor 'Orchidglade' AM/AOS x C. Clarissa
- Expecting pinks/fuchsias with yellow throats and magenta lip disks, 2-4 per spike. Flower form may be open from the harrisoniana grandparent. $25

C. Porcia 'Canizzaro' FCC/AOS x Lc. Small Stuff 'Mary-Margaret’s Surprise'
- An attempt to produce something similar to Tiny Treasure, but with a white/cream lip. Most will be entirely pink/magenta. Plants will be compact, with 2-4 flowers per stem. Limted $75

Blc. Stephen Love 'Geyserland' x C. harrisoniana 'Volcano Queen' AM/AOS
- Stephen Love ‘Geyserland’ is of excellent form, with pale pastel pink tepals and a cream lip with a magenta disk, bred from Puppy Love ‘True Beauty.’ This cross is an attempt to emphasize the cream to yellow lip of C. harrisoniana, and continue the pastel pink shade of the tepals. $25

Bc. Groganiae ‘Mariposa Rosada’ x Blc. Pearl Harbor 'Orchidglade' AM/AOS
-Groganiae (loddigesii x digbyana) is a very old cross. This particular variety was made with exceptionally fine parents, and ‘Mariposa Rosada’ makes 2-3 flowers per stem. Crossed with Pearl Harbor (25% loddigesii), this should make excellent pinks with exceptional pale cream lips & of excellent substance. Limted $75

Gur. bowringiana 'Blue Smoke' x C.Claesiana 'Ugly Duckling'
- NFS, reference only

L. aurea (Syn. L rubescens v. aurea) x Lc. Ruth Carpenter 'Mothers Love' AM/AOS
- I believe this will be a fantastic cross! Ruth Carpenter ‘Mother’s Love’ looks like a white L. anceps on steroids! Expecting large pastel flowers of full, anceps-type shape. Colors will vary from pinks to peaches to yellows, all with dark throats. An excellent grower. $20






C. loddigesii 'Mercedes' x Blc. Mt. Hood 'Orchidglade' AM/AOS
- A remake of Blc. Esther Peters using a superior clone of 4N C.loddigesii, these should be round, full, pink, and huge, with excellent substance. A very exciting cross! $50

C. Royal Walk x Blc. Mahina Yahiro 'Mishima' AM/AOS
- Expecting round and full pinks and lavenders with strong yellow throats. Plants will be compact. $35

C. Golden Wax 'Lonestar' HCC/AOS x C. Hawaiian Wedding Song 'Virgin'
- A prospective cross with excellent parents. These flowers should be varying pastel shades (mostly pinks) with extremely heavy substance and 4-6 flowers presented well above the foliage. Some of these may have darts of contrasting yellow or deep pink at the tips of the tepals, similar to Magic Bell. $20

C. Golden Wax 'Lonestar II' HCC/AOS x C Hawaiian Wedding Song 'Virgin'
- As above, but made with the shocking and clear yellow clone of Golden Wax. Colors will again be pastels, but expect more peaches and maybe even some yellows. Again, darts of yellow or orange on a background of white to pink are expected. $20

C. intermedia orlata 'Crownfox' AM/AOS x C. loddigesii 'Mercedes'
- Remake of Claesiana, with excellent tetraploid parents. Very few flasks will be available, as most will be held back. $50

C. intermedia orlata ‘Crownfox’ AM/AOS x C. intermedia orlata coerulea ‘Gnomos’
- An excellent species sibbing, should produce large, well presented orlatas recessive for coerulea. $40



Lc Rojo x Lc. East Texas Sunset
-Large heads of red and orange flowers on robust, easily grown plants. Compots available. Compots of 10-15 - $30

B. Little Stars x Lc. East Texas Sunset
- Vigorous growers, compact plants, combining the best of Rojo, Orange Nugget, and Little Stars. Huge heads of well presented orange and yellow flowers with excellent substance. Made for the Florida heat! Compots available. Compots of 10-15 - $30

C. Porcia 'Cannizaro' x C. Hawaiian Wedding Song 'Virgin'
- A fantastic cross, with a double dose of loddigesii. Similar to Hummingbird, with heads of pink flowers with yellow to cream lips. $40

Blc. Stephen Love 'Geyserland' 4N x C. harrisoniana 'Volcano Queen' 4N
- expect pale pinks with open cream-colored lips, of excellent form and flower count. $20

C. Brazilian Jewel x C. loddigesii 'Mercedes'
- Brazilian Jewel is walkeriana x nobilior, and this one is excellent and deep magenta-pink. Expect large round flowers on compact plants, similar to C. Heathii with better lips. Limted - $50

C. Pearl Harbor 'Orchidglade' x C. harrisoniana 'Volcano Queen'
- A large white with a great deal of C.trianaei will produce pinks with cream lips, of greatly improved substance and flower count. Look to Moon Miss ‘Lunar Dawn’-type flowers. $20

Bc. Bob Betts x C. harrisoniana 'Volcano Queen' 4N
- Similar to the above cross, made with the iconoclastic white. Large flowers than above, with better form. $20

C. De'esse 'Perfection' x walkeriana 'Blu Llama' (Cashen's Tranquility)
- A remake made with a tetraploid alba walkeriana. Expect large pink flowers on compact plants. Limited - $40

C. Brazilian Midway alba
- Made from a vigorous C. loddigesii and the biggest alba C. harrisoniana I have ever seen. A labeled intermediate between the species, with a widened blooming season and all the vigor of a primary. Limted compots of 10-15 - $50

Well, it is mostly a Japhet-type flower consisting of mostly alba loddigesii, crossed with bowringiana. I suspect they will look like Hummingbird.
