Hello folks,

It's time for another poll. Inquiring minds want to know, how many Phrags do you have in your collection? Feel free to tell us how many you have or even list them if you want.

I think I have about 50 or so. Some I gave away, sold or traded them for other plants.

82 phragis:Party:

about 30 I'd say with more sure to come

I don't have an exact number but I would guess about 20

I think I have about 6-8 species as adults, with a couple of dozen seedlings.

i have 15 phrags

I have mostly species and most are mature plants. Here is a list of my Phrags in my collection.

I have exactly one. I will have 3 when I get my kovachii

I have lots of paphs but only 2 phrags.... my favorite are the long-petal species phrags so i will probably get some of those in the next few years.

:congrat: :nicephrags: Ashley Wilkes is a beautiful hybrid but I just don't have the space for it. wallissi x kovachii would be an interesting cross. Please post photos of your plants when they are in bloom.

Only 2 so far...Eric Young and a newly spiking Andean Fire (first Phrag to ever bloom for me! :woohoo: ). Both were purchased over a year ago so I think I know what I'm doing :fcrossed: . Another 5 or so are on order for this spring! :Party:

Thanks Jim.

I only have 11 phrags now but intend to increase my haul when summer rolls around, which in turn will force me to create more space in "the basement" this fall when all come in for the winter.
Right now my list includes:

"Walter Schomburg"

"Achental" (richteri "Green Giant" x Hanna Popow 'Buttermilk') (with 1 spike ready to bloom, and another one just starting to emerge!)

"Don Wimber"

"Longifolium" var. hincksianum (with 2 spikes right now!)

"Ecudorense" 'Birchwood'

"Appalachian Sunset" 3N

"Mountain Maid"

"Silver Eagle"

"Wossen"

"Inca Embers"

"Will Chantry" (Klotzcheanum x besseae 'Red Flame')

These few keep me quite busy along with the other 120 different orchid species and hybrids I'm trying to maintain! Sharon

Nice Phrags, Sharon! Will Chantry is a beautiful hybrid. I would love to get one but I just don't have the space.

i have 4:

2 Grandes

Appalachian Sunset 3N.

a compot of St Apprentice 'Carmine Banquet' AM/AOS X Lynn Evans Goldner 'Full Circle' HCC/AOS

Sharon - post pics for sure! I'd love to see the Achental & love to have a Silver Eagle! Nice list!

I have 103, after adding two to the list this past weekend. That's not counting seedlings out of flask less than a year.

I have nine phrag
Two I bought in bloom/spike, that are blooming now, this winter in St. Paul and three pearcii or pearcii croses and some others. Don't have the names off hand. One in bloom is Sorcerers Apprentince and at one time had 5 blooms open at the same time. Down to two now with one bud opening. The other one in bloom is Dick Clementsx prarcii birchwood. It has two buds open.
I have a Caudium that had one bloom on it when I got it and looks like it may have one more coming, who knows it it will get more after that. The Pearcii has a bloomed spike that is still in good shape and may have another bud forming. The rest are one mature growth plants a couple with small growths anywhere from to to 3 inches.
