Ludochilus Dominyi

One of the very first orchid hybrids ever, probably crossed by John Dominy, the head gardener at the Veitch & Sons nursery. Since in vitro propagation was not yet known in the 19th century, seeds were sown on the plant parts or on the original imported soil. The success was of course moderate, therefore the success of a successful hybrid is to be valued all the higher.
The single flowers are small and attractive. Both parent plants flower regularly and very reliably, so that Ludochilus Dominyi will be a grateful orchid for the showcase or fenter bench.
The original name of the hybrid was Anoectomaria = Anoectochilus x Haemaria. Haemaria is the old name for Ludisia.
