From the first seedling bloom, Light Between Oceans has been a personal favorite. These gently pleated extra large 7 1/2" orchid lavender blooms have a light cream yellow watermark covering half of each petal and a grass green throat. The tall 45" scapes support the extra large blooms with no leaning and the wide branching allows each bloom to open fully. Both CMO and EMO Light Between Oceans reblooms and opens completely with the cooler late summer mornings. Light Between Oceans is easily fertile both ways.

MAN IN THE MAZE is a light lemon and cream bicolor with a patterned eye that will catch your attention. Shades of copper, violet, silver, gray, lavender and fuchsia combine into a maze of color. Beginning the early season with pattern blooms, later blooms frequently show cristation taking the pattern into another dimension. The clean semi-evergreen foliage and sturdy 29" scapes provide a well proportioned plant to the 4 1/2" blooms. Nicely spaced 3 and 4 way branching with 15 - 18 buds. Pod and pollen fertile.

Oceans Rising is a light cream yellow with a purple eye and edge. The purple and cream cristate fins rise from the throat onto the petal surface. I almost didn't introduce Oceans Rising because it does not like to be divided and won't show the cristation until it clumps up. After seedlings from crosses with Oceans Rising matured with nice plant habit, 4 and 5 way branching, as well as cristation, I decided other hybridizers might be interested in using it. Parent Painted on Jeans is not cristate however it is parent to my cristate Weird Anatomy and One Planet. A Different Kinda Buzz is from my midrib cristate Man in the Maze so there is plenty of interesting material to work with in the background of Ocean's Rising. Easily fertile with at least one future intro waiting to be registered.

(Rich 2020) Sculpted cristate, Tet, Dor, Late, 5 3/4" bloom, 29" tall, 3 way branching, 15 - 18 buds
These 5 3/4" blooms are a pale yellow cream to cream with a blue violet eye and edge. In shade the eye appears as a pure true blue on a pale cream base. Sunlight adds a touch of red to the blue making the color lean toward blue violet and the base a pale yellow. Almost always cristate, the individual blooms have ruffled cristation on the midrib or feathered cristation on the surface of the petals. On a clump it's not unusual to see several midrib cristate blooms and several blooms with cristation on the surface open on the same day. On the rare occasion there is no cristation the blue eye becomes the focal point and is stunning! Fertile both ways, an excellent parent for both cristation and blue eyes.

The flowers of PAINTED ON JEANS have a clear rose-pink base with a vivid blue-violet patterned eye and edge. PAINTED ON JEANS begins blooming mid season and continues through the late season with 3 to 5 way branching and 16 - 24 buds. Foliage is nicely arched remaining attractive into late fall. Beautiful in the garden and easily fertile both ways for the hybridizer.
