Identification

Identification

Got this funky orchid from Hausermanns & it was unlabeled w/ other neo's. Massive in size w/ mud roots, but loved the leaf shape. Any good guesse? I haven't seen one with this form that's so large - hence why I'm guessing it's gotta have Amami lineage given the tsuyuuke shape, but I'm also not as experienced as others to make that call.

Root Color Inheritance

Ruby roots are recessive, but has there been any simplified record of what combinations yield what results? I know it's a bit more complex due to xanthophylls, chlorophyll, and anthrocyanins coming into play leading to yellow, mud, red/salmon, and even white roots being possible. It would be cool to see if we had mathematical statistics for root traits the same way we do for triple spur inheritance. What have you guys observed? My insomnia keeps me curious and I could observe my orchids all day if you let me 💯 Taiga for tax

Chirifu Variegation Inheritance

Quick question: Does chirifu/Fugaku style variegation pass down as a pollen parent? If it does do we have a percentage on that? I know it's more frequent as a pod parent. Chwiwol morphing for tax.
