  • Woodstream Orchids Winter 2019-2020 Phragmipedium Species, Hybrids, and Select Divisions!
    Woodstream Orchids Winter 2019-2020 Phragmipedium Species, Hybrids, and Select Divisions! PHRAGMIPEDIUM SPECIES AND HYBRIDS Woodstream Orchids is one of the leading Phragmipedium hybridizers and producers of seed-grown Phrags in the United States (Okay, the World). The future is bright for Phrags with our continuing success at producing commercial quantities of highly desirable species and hybrids. You will find unique hybrids listed below, many of which are unavailable elsewhere, at this time. Our current focus is on Phragmipedium: • Species • Second and third generation kovachii hybrids • (4N) and (3N) besseae hybrids • Yellow and white hybrids • Miniature and compact hybrids As the popularity of Phragmipediums grew with the discovery of Phrag besseae, more and more hybrids were attempted by Phrag breeders. It was soon discovered that there were some poorly-defined genetic incompatibilities that prevented good seed production in many crosses. Dr. Donald Wimber, working at the Eric Young Orchid Foundation on the Isle of Jersey, in the United Kingdom, and others devised laboratory methods to induce Phragmipedium seed to double their DNA chromosome count 1 from normal [diploid, (2N) to tetraploid (4N)]. When plants were crossed with one another, or with a normal diploid (2N) plants, these breeding incompatabilities were greatly reduced, and seed production increased. Both tetraploid (4N) plants and triploid (3N) plants often exhibit improvements in flower size, color, substance, and sometimes, growth rate, when compared to similar 2N plants. On the other hand, 3N and 4N plants often grow larger than 2N plants and may produce fewer flowers. This said, some of the most spectacular Phragmipedium show plants seen today come from 3N and 4N breeding.

Braem1*, Eliseo Tesón2, & David Manzur Macías3 Mots-clés/Keywords : Colombie/Colombia, Orchidaceae, Phragmipedium, taxinomie/taxonomy. Abstract A new species belonging to the genus Phragmipedium is described and illustrated as P. anguloi from Colombia. Its affinities and differentiating characteristics are discussed. The new species is closely allied to P. andreettae P.J.Cribb & Pupulin but differs in having a tufted and compact appearance and various differences in its floral morphology. Résumé Phragmipedium anguloi, une nouvelle espèce colombienne appartenant à Phragmipedium subgenus Micropetalum (Orchidaceae) – Une nouvelle espèce de Phragmipedium est décrite et illustrée sous le nom de P. anguloi. Ses affinités et ses caractères distinctifs sont discutés. Cette nouvelle espèce est étroitement apparentée à P. andreettae P.J.Cribb & Pupulin mais s'en distingue par son aspect compact, en touffe et par diverses différences dans sa morphologie florale. Introduction Hitherto, 42 taxa have been described within the genus Phragmipedium Rolfe (1896) at the species level. Of those, one (xerophyticum) belongs to an autonomous genus (Mexipedium), two (brasiliense and tetzlaffianum) are a : manuscrit reçu le 30 août 2014, accepté le 18 septembre 2014 article mis en ligne sur www.richardiana.com le 20/09/2014 – pp. 289-294 - © Tropicalia ISSN 1626-3596 (imp.) - 2262-9017 (élect.)
