Cyc. The Grinch 'Copper' x Cyc. cooperi 'Super Dark' AM/AOS | BS not in bloom

Cycnoches The Grinch 'Copper' × Cycnoches cooperi 'Super Dark' AM/AOS is an absolute blockbuster of a Catasetinae cross, specifically engineered for collectors who demand the ultimate expression of dark, dramatic luxury in Swan Orchids. Pairing a brilliantly unique, metallic-undertoned parent with an officially awarded, ultra-saturated coerulea/dark standard, this seedling population holds massive potential for producing future award-winners.

This elite pairing brings together a masterclass in dynamic contrast:

• The Pod Parent (Cyc. The Grinch 'Copper'): A sensational hybrid (Cyc. warscewiczii × Cyc. Herbie Poole) known for its heavy, lacquer-like substance and captivating, multi-tonal color profile. It infuses the cross with a glowing, metallic copper-bronze base color, excellent flower count, and a beautifully broad lip.

• The Pollen Parent (Cyc. cooperi 'Super Dark' AM/AOS): One of the most famous and highly coveted clones in the entire genus. It brings a proven pedigree of world-class form, a perfectly arranged cascading spike habit, and an ultra-deep, velvety dark chocolate-to-mahogany coloration that is almost black.

Culture Preferences: Thrives in intermediate to warm conditions with bright, filtered light and heavy watering and fertilizer only while actively growing in the spring and summer. As the plants finish blooming in late winter and shed their leaves, they require a dry dormancy period until the new spring growth emerges and establishes a strong root system.
