Stud Plants 3

Stud Plants 3
As its getting qute boring featuring my stud plants one by one, I thought it would be better if I feature more of them in this posting

.
From L-R Phal amboinensis (Taiwan), Phal amboinensis 'Nicole', Phal amboinensis 'Taiwan', Phal amboinensis 'Malaysia'
My collection of Phal amboinensis is mostly from Taiwan which is larger and rounder in shape. I have chosen the rounder shape and deeper colours for my stud as these qualities are essential in creating a better hybrids. Crossings with Phal Tan Lee Moy and Phal Penang Ruby have produced show quality hybrids like R237 Phal Jessie Ang and R274 Phal Jessie Lee. I have also cross Phal amboinensis 'Nicole' with self (R317) and Phal amboinensis 'Taiwan' with self R67 & R74). Both have produced blooms better than their stud plants.I also expect crossings of Phal amboinensis 'Taiwan' with Phal Eleanor Loh (R358), with Phal belina (R432), and Phal Michael Chamorro (R475) to produce also show quality plants.


Phal Eleanor Loh
Another plant which I use extensively as stud is Phal Eleanor Loh. This hybrid is used mainly for its shape. Crossings with this hybrid is R188 (Phal gigantea x Phal Eleanor Loh), R381 (Phal Michael Chamorrow x Phal Eleanor Loh), R414 (Phal Tan Lee Moy x Phal Eleanor Loh), R470 (Phal Eleanor Loh x Phal Hsu Li-shian) R496 (Phal Eleanor Loh x Phal Poh Ee Huat).R581 (Phal Penang Ruby x Phal Eleanor Loh).


From L-R Phal Billy Wang Phal Billy Wang Phal Billy Wang Phal Penang Jewel


From L-R Phal Penang Violacea Phal cornu cervi Phal Su-an Cricket Phal Gladys Fang

I have a collection of alba form phalaenopsis. It is my intention to produce a green hybrid of good colour shape and form. Genetically the green colour probably came from Phal Penang Jewel. From this hybrid I propagated a few green flower ( R13, and R22) and I have used them to propagate with other green/yellow hybrids, like, Phal Penang Violacea and Phal cornu-cervi.
My new hybrids from these studs have produced some nice green blooms ie R251 (Phal Su-an Cricket x Phal Billy Wang), R277 (Phal Billy Wang Sib),R328 (Phal cornu cervi 'Alba' x Phal Billy Wang), R351 (Penang Jewel x Phal Soo Ngor 'Green') , RR391 (Phal Penang Violacea x Phal Billy Wang 'Green'), and R443 (Phal violacea 'Alba' x Phal cornu-cervi 'Alba').
