Eric, a super looking clone, my imagination or is it 'long'?
Has an almost Phragmapedium look about it?


Yes Chris it is rather long . Just measured it at  9cm long x 12 cm in width.
Last time this flowered the lip was much more flared. I will look to see if I have a photo of it.

Wharfdale Pine Warbler has to be one of the best Autumn flowering hybrids and it certainly brightens up a miserable Autumn day.
Note the friendly bee in the pan that has been pollinating all my Autumn Pleione. I have tried on several occasions removing him to the outside of the greenhouse but he always comes back.

Eric,
another FAB looking hybrid, thought about ordering this from the 'Pleiones' catalogue but don't have room on the windowsills! :'(
Is there any variability in the lip exterior within P.WPW?

Chris the exterior of the lip does vary with the amount of colouration a fact I had not noticed before.
Intensity of the the red also varies from flower to flower and year to year.
One very nice feature with Pine Warbler is that once it starts to flower it lasts for many weeks unlike most Pleione . Also this clone is very vigorous, makes huge bulbs and multiplies well. All in all I feel this should be in everyones collection as it is a five star plant.

I agree, would love to give this clone a home, problem is deciding who would have to give up their place on the windowsill!
Still, natural attrition may help me out for next years round of ordering, failing that a few species can always go in for co-habitation
of a pot. ;)

Today I took some pictures from Pleione maculata .
I don't know of this name is correct but I bought them with that name ......
Do the name "maculata" refers to the markings on the bulb?

There were other photos in a thread about P. maculata markings, but the pix were loaded from Photobucket and have disapppeared.... I have emailed the Forumist to see if he can repost those photos!

Many of Eric's photos have been removed by him.

There are many maculata pictures in this thread, including the first post  :)

Here's the last of my autumn flowering, Pleione Barcena:

Also a nice clone, Karel. More colouring to the lips, which is something i like. I might add that mine is darker than the pictures show. I'm just not very good at photography :)

Karel, Lars, very fine looking Barcena!
Lars, the photos are great, often the camera doesn't quite capture what the eye sees and also no two cameras are them same etc etc!
At the end of the day this is a Plant Forum, not a photography competition, it is clear your plants are very well grown and flower superbly, Bravo!
