I've been tryng to cross two of my Phalenposis before I try it with my paphieopedilums (which must be partially dissected to achieve polination). While I follow the steps correctly placing both pollen sacs on the receiving stigma and the polinated flower collapses within a week or so it never makes a seed pod. What is it I'm doing wrong? They're growing in awesome conditions (the white Phal has been flowering from the same stalk for almost a year) so it shouldn't be a cultural problem.
Is there a possibility that for some reason that a generic (nameless) Phal. ambilis hybrid (white phal) won't cross with a true Phal. schilleriana? I'm hoping for a white Phal with the small black & silver mottled P. schilleriana leaves.
