Yes Dori, they are all named and I have several of some .The purple one that is most likely Buckleyii has been the most common over here until new hybridisers started with the different colors. Our shops usually only stock any schlums when in flower so it takes a while to find the different ones.
Lavinia, watch out, my shade house was once only small , then hubby said the epis looked crowded so we built on further until the whole thing now measures around 60 feet long by 12 feet wide. We also built a new room on this year ( 12 feet x 20 feet). It's like walking into a jungle now. The schlums also need an extension onto their shadehouse. I think I may have to stop collecting them and look after what I have as we have no more room for extensions.
I also have 200 irises so I think I qualify as a plantaholic.
This is Gold Fantasy.
