I was in a big hurry to get a quick picture of my Bl. Richard Mueller opening its first of several spikes today. This one doesn't seem to have any dots on the lip, but the dots seem to be a variable trait with this as well as many of the crosses with Richard as a parent. First pic is a really bad shot of the new flower, (sorry it's windy out there and it wouldn't keep still). Second and third is my Yellow Bird which is a child of Richard, c/w flowers on the same plant with and without dots on the lip. Flowers are about to drop on this one, and the color is quite orange now.
