Doritaenopsis Leopard Prince
Doritaenopsis

Parentage: Doritaenopsis Sun
Prince x Phalaenopsis Ho's French Fantasia
A heavily spotted version of
a Doritaenopsis intergeneric hybrid. I have to admit about being confused about
Doritaenopsis as a genus. The names Doritis and Doritaenopsis are now out and
these orchids belong to Phalaenopsis. The names seem to keep changing and plant
names are much less settled then I once believed them to be,
I got my Christmas present
yesterday and it was something I waited a long time to get. Since my old guitar
needs to be retired due to stress cracks in the pick guard I wanted another
Fender Stratocaster to replace it. Ironically the new guitar is almost an exact
replica of the old one. The people in Guitar Center were getting sick of me
demoing every Strat in the store. When I plugged in the 2003 Eric ClaptonSignature Model I knew I had found my perfect
prize. After playing hardball on the price it went home with me.
Here is a Sunday bonus
snapshot. This flower was at the orchid wholesale nursery and was unnamed. It
really had a rich, velvety appearance.
