Disa Madiba's Pride

As told to me by the hybrid's originator, Michael Tibbs...

"The cross is (Disa Pride of Constantia x Disa Unifoam 'Majestic') and I named it for Nelson Mandela. Madiba is his local African name by which he is known here in South Africa.
He was very encouraging to our bid for the 20th World Orchid Conference and I was pleeased to be able to name a South African orchid hybrid made from a SA orchid. The flowers vary from vibrant orange to bright red and carry up to four flowers on a stem. I have meristemmed it and part of the proceeds from the sale of the meristem will be donated to Nelson Mandela's children fund on an annual basis."
