Can anyone give me information about P. Shu Long Green Apple? It could be Long Shu Green Apple.

Hi Mary,

It doesn't look like your Orchid is registered with the RHS (often plants are marketed before they are registered with the RHS Orchid Registrar). The name will either be Phal. Shu Long Green Apple (I can find a number of marketed hybrids like Shu Long Red Apple, etc.) or Phal. LongShu Green Apple (there are a number of LongShu hybrids registered).

Thank you. That is also my conclusion. I don't think the Shu Long Green Apple is registered. I found everything you found too. But I can't locate it's parents. I will say this though. It is a truly gorgeous plant. Its light green color is quite lovely. Shu Long seems to be a huge nursery in Thailand. Thank you for your help.

I have Shu Long Fairy. Beautiful! A nursery in Thailand? We eat Thai food at least 1 a week. Have a number of good restaurants in this fairly small town.

It's positioned in front of a pot of bamboo. I realize I've posted this before!

Yes indeed, Shu Long Fairy is beautiful.

Thank you everyone who responded. I guess I will have to wait until it is registered. It is the most beautiful light green. And it has been in bloom for two months.
