| Flask # | Price/Status | PHRAGMIPEDIUM SPECIES FLASKS |
| CA53 | $125.00 Flasks Ready 9/2026 |
Phragmipedium andreettae x self EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: I am always excited when flasks come to fruition of this little gem, as it is very reluctant to produce ample seed. There are less than 10 flasks available. Don’t miss out! |
| CA35 | $250.00 Flasks Ready Now! |
Phragmipedium besseae ‘Cow Hollow II’ FCC/AOS x self EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Many of you ask for divisions of this beautiful awarded species and once in a while I get one. Here will be the next best thing! |
| CA37 | $250.00 Flasks Ready Now! |
Phragmipedium besseae ‘Peruvian Sunset’ x self EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: This is a beautiful example of the species, grows well and stays in the pot with a shorter rhizome. |
| CA11 | $125.00 Flasks Ready 7/2026 |
Phragmipedium humboldtii x humboldtii EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: This is a mating with my two best clones of this dark pouched, long petal Central American species. |

Phragmipedium kovachii ‘Peruvian Dream’ x ‘Peruvian Love’ EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Bringing this amazing species back again! |
| Flask # | Price/Status | PHRAGMIPEDIUM HYBRID FLASKS (Listed alphabetically by the registered name) |
| CA46 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 6/2026 |
Phragmipedium Acker’s Rose (Bright Spot ‘Littlefrog Inferno’ AM/AOS x kovachii ‘Smokies’) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: This cross has great potential using the awarded clone of Phragmipedium Bright Spot ‘Littlefrog Inferno’ AM/AOS. Thank you, Rob Halgren, for a wonderful division of that star plant! And thank you to Jason Gebbia for sharing pollen from his beautiful Phragmipedium kovachii ‘Smokies’! |
| CA49 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 7/2026 |
Phragmipedium Carolina First Light (Jordan’s Peach Tango ‘Acker’s Sunray’ AM/AOS x kovachii ‘Peruvian Summit’) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: I first offered this cross in limited supply late last year and the flasks sold out quite rapidly. This time I am using a different clone of Phragmipedium kovachii. We have a great genetic mix of Phragmipedium d’alessandroi, besseae, fischeri, sargentianum and kovachii here which are the backbones to producing some of the finest Phragmipedium hybrids! |
| CA47 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 7/2026 |
Phragmipedium Graeme Jones (Barbara LeAnn ‘Red’ x kovachii ‘Peruvian Summit’) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Phragmipedium Graeme Jones produces a wide array of dark pink to purple-colored flowers with superb shape and size. As we know the Phragmipedium Barbara LeAnn has proven itself to be a positive parent when it comes to flower shape and colors. These plants will be compact in growth habit and bloom quick from the flask. |
| CA45 | $100.00 Flasks Ready 8/2026 |
Phragmipedium Plemont (Hanne Popow ‘Jersey’ AM/RHS [4N] x d’alessandroi ‘Fire Tower’) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: This has been a very popular hybrid among hobby growers and commercial growers alike. Compact growing plants producing branched inflorescences with an amazing array of pink toned flowers. Quick to bloom from flask too! |
| CA52 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 8/2026 |
Phragmipedium Robert-Jan Quene (Fritz Schomburg x besseae ‘Cow Hollow II’ FCC/AOS) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: This recent hybrid is rarely seen and that’s not surprising due to the difficulties in producing viable seed. These supremely shaped flowers with their rich color saturation are the genetic result of 75% besseae and 25% kovachii. What more could you ask for! |
| CA17 | $125.00 Flasks Ready 8/2026 |
Phragmipedium Rouge Bouillon (Mem. Dick Clements ‘Rocket Flash’ [4N] x d’alessandroi ‘Acker’s Flamenco Dancer’) EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Over the years of breeding Phragmipedium, I have seen only a few dark red Phragmipedium besseae hybrids rival that of Phragmipedium Jason Fischer (Mem. Dick Clements x besseae). However, this is one of them! Attributes above the Jason Fischer are that of, branching inflorescences in which we see multiple flowers carried at any time! |

NEW PHRAGMIPEDIUM HYBRID |
| CA38 | $150.00 Flasks Ready Now! |
Phragmipedium Acker’s Starlight ‘Waunakee’ AM/AOS [4N] x d’alessandroi ‘Firehouse’ EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: You will notice that lately I have been offering many hybrids using Phragmipedium d’alessandroi as a parent. Here are the reasons – I most likely have one of the best collections of the species; Nearly every hybrid it is used in results with incredible branching and flower power out-put; The progeny are usually compact and do not crawl out of the pot! This cross is going to be a winner and it is the first time offered. |
| CA19 | $75.00 Flasks Ready Now! |
Phragmipedium Dominianum ‘Bob Mac’ AM/AOS x manzurii ‘Waunakee’ EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Taxonomists tell us Phragmipedium manzurii is nothing other than a Phragmipedium schlimii. So that would mean this cross is Phragmipedium Albopurpureum which was registered in 1877! I totally disagree with the classification of Phragmipedium manzurii and I am not alone on that. In my opinion we have a new hybrid here which will result in producing the attributes that Phragmipedium manzurii is known for such as, small growing plants and branching inflorescence! |
| CA39 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 8/2026 |
Phragmipedium Elizabeth Castle ‘Maximus’ AM/AOS [4N] x d’alessandroi ‘Firehouse’ EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: There are only 11 crosses registered using the Elizabeth Castle and all of them are a hit. So far no one has mated it with the incredible branching characteristics of the species Phragmipedium d’alessandroi. This will be an incredibly floriferous hybrid with multiple branching stems carrying many flowers at one time! |
| CA50 | $125.00 Flasks Ready 6/2026 |
Phragmipedium Emma Lommen x d’alessandroi ‘Acker’s Flamenco Dancer’ EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: Here we have a great genetic mix of Phragmipedium fischeri, besseae, kovachii and d’alessandroi! Small plants with lots of potential for branching and high flower count! The Emma Lommen is a very deep purple flower and a very compact growing plant. I’m extremely excited to offer this new hybrid! |
| CA40 | $150.00 Flasks Ready 6/2026 |
Phragmipedium Jordan’s Peach Tango ‘Acker’s Sunray’ AM/AOS x self EXCLUSIVE OFFERING: My awarded clone of Jordan’s Peach Tango is such an amazing plant, it grows well and stays compact in the pot. The flower color is crisp and clean. Many of you have asked for divisions of this plant so I thought the next best thing would be to self-pollinate and offer flasks. |
