WEDNESDAY 7/19/2011 UPDATE
Welcome to Pine Ridge Orchids section on Phalaenopsis. We are striving to produce the best quality Phalaenopsis in the most unusual colors and patterns.
I was recently told that the one lab I relied upon to clone our best plants is no longer going to persue cloning Phalaenopsis because of the economics of the worldwide Orchid Market. I have just sent a new batch of inflorescences to be cloned to new lab - see the notes as you click on the popup photos. This lab only will produce our clones in very limited quantities and these clones will not be released to any other nurseries as the larger labs have done in the past. Our NEW clones will only be available in VERY LIMITED quantities and we will have to price them slightly higher because our costs are significantly higher to produce these select plants.
We are trying our best to present the highest quality orchids that we can.
We are offering Phalaenopsis cut flowers at $3.00 per inflorescence - local sales only. We usually start to cut the inflorescences from December throughout the flowering season. The cuts originate from plants that may be fully open or from plants that I deem too small for this season's sales. All the flower spikes are cut using sterilized scissors. The colors range from all of the clones we produce to the full range of hybrid seedlings, but very few if any whites. We usually bundle 10 inflorescences per bunch. Please bring your own containers to hold water. I offer the cuts at a very low cost to everyone and I cannot take the time to pack and ship the cuts since the open flowers would sustain too much damage.
I have just added a short 21 MB movie that Jennifer Brown ("Pine Rockland Composition" movie producer) made while she was shooting the movie about our globally endangered Rock Pineland. Hope you enjoy.
HYBRID SEEDLINGS & CLONES UPDATE
hYBRIDIZED & GROWN IN THE USA
I will start to list some of the recent arrivals of hybrid Phalaenopsis seedlings as they arrive in the nursery. These seedlings would have been just taken out of flask according to the date listed. Some of the hybrids are my crosses and some will be from breeders I work with. I will not be posting photos of hybrids because hybrids involve a large variability in potential colors compared to photos of clones which are consistant with the plant cloned.
