Pleione Shantung 'Ducat'

Only superlatives can do this magnificent cultivar justice. Undoubtedly Dr. Harberd’s masterpiece and a special gift for all Pleione lovers. Although three different species are involved in this cross, the forrestii genes have triumphed and created a large pure yellow of excellent shape and substance, with a flamboyant lip marked with blood red. Probably the finest yellow hybrid produced to date. La Crème de la Crème and now rarely offered!

Pln. formosana x Pln. x confusa
