I'd think x barbarae too, with a really nice colour.

[Ramsis]

robsorchids,
in this picture flower is  a little darker than really, because I took pictures in the evening.
color similar to your P. hekla 'locking stumps'

[karel_t]

Ramsis, the color can be pale, but the markings is typical for x barbarae.

[Ramsis]

How do you think  can I rename to P. x barbarae, or leave as Pleione noid

[Slug Killer]

P. Hekla
P. Rakata Rock Dove

"Hi Eric,
the Glacier Peak came from Kath Fairhurst. I wonder if she re-made the cross herself. It's possible."

Maren,
Here is one of my Glacier Peaks flowering now. Mine are from seedlings given to me by Kath. She quoted the cross as using formosana "Cairngorm."

Hi Pete That is a lovely Glacier Peak. Kath has a very nice Cairngorm with red lip markings and not the usuall brick-red colour and this seems to have come through into this clone.
