I acquired this Odontioda Echanson ‘Abic’ from Bob Hamilton on a visit to his greenhouse in September of 2020.

This is an older Odontioda cross, first registered in 1961. It has a three-foot spike, with 14 flowers, growing in a four-inch pot. The colors are not as dramatic as in the Castle de Stro-type Odontiodas, but it is still great color in the greenhouse.
