Pod parent: CHEAP QUILLS (Michaels 2008) M 30" SEV 8˝" cream, pink and yellow blend Crispate (also Spatulate) Unusual Form that, to some eyes, bears the silhouette of a Lady Slipper orchid. Stout scapes with a terminal Y with 2 laterals, up to 37 buds, and excellent pod (once established) and pollen fertility. Makes average to large sized fans. A quilled Crispate Unusual Form, it's a sibling to PLATYPUS PAM and is the pod parent of STARFISH ENTERPRISE, pollen of CENTRIFUGAL FARCE and MOON QUILLS. Reblooms in wetter years and has been reported to be rust resistant. (WILSON SPIDER X PRETZEL LOGIC).
Pollen parent: NNWSHHYP-8 (unregistered) L 42” DOR 11” With thick, sturdy scapes and 2 laterals holding 22 buds, I could not help but select this curled and twisted orchid Cascade Unusual Form with its big yellow to chartreuse throat when it first bloomed in 2015. Unopened buds often look as if they are spiraled. I’d almost introduced its mother, and still keep it as a bridge plant, because it has great branching with 30+ buds but chose its sibling, MAIN SQUEEZE, for its extreme form instead. NNWSH27HYP-8 is definitely in contention for future (2019 or 2020) introduction. [(NINA NINA WOLVERINA x SCISSORHANDS) X HYPER].
