Big Momma is beginning to open ...
Big Momma, aka Phal Carmela's Brite Lites 'Big City' x Kenneth Wong
'Carmela' (one of the two orchids that I got from friends here from Al's
Orchid Greenhouse) is beginning to open its first bud today. I can already
tell that it is indeed a green-flowered Phal, so the photo that Al posted to
alt.binaries.pictures.orchids (and that he thought was of a sister plant)
was indeed the correct one. I will post a photo of my own on abpo once the
flower has fully opened, but for now I found the picture that Al posted in
the usenet-replayer archives
http://download.usenet-replayer.com/2/3/8/7/1136617832.5.jpg . It looks like
mine will have more red spots on the green-background petals though. I am
very excited about it.

Can't wait to see it, Joanna! If you ever get it awarded it can be named
'Baby Robert's Big Momma', LOL.

Since it is not named she could call it Brite Roberts 'Big Momma' <G>
and get the whole thing in even a reference to the original cross
(Phal Carmela's Brite Lites 'Big City' x Kenneth Wong 'Carmela'),
ok only 1/2 of it.
Note: no ( 's) it gives everyone fits, some leave it in, some drop it.
Better to just go without from scratch.
