Prof. Tran Duy Quy – Former Director of the Institute of Agricultural Genetics, Chairman of Hanoi Orchid Association analyzed many interesting points about mutant orchids.
According to Professor Tran Duy Quy, the hobby of playing mutant orchids has a history of nearly half a century. In 1972, the first mutant orchid had the presence of pure white pentagram in Co Tiet commune, Tam Nong district, Phu Tho province.

The person who discovered it was a … Central circus actor. This person found mutant orchids on a village banyan tree. At that time the flowers were blooming. They share with local people and also bring them to plant. Later, that orchid was named “Phu Tho white five-pointed”. Prof. Tran Duy Quy – Former Director of the Institute of Agricultural Genetics, Chairman of Hanoi Orchid Association analyzed the mutant orchid Those who study deeply about orchids divide mutant orchids into 2 main types according to the flower face: The first is the white five-pointed flower, the second is the pink five-pointed flower. In the five white wings again divided many criteria. The best criteria of a mutant flower must have the structure of 3 sepals and it must be balanced, not too big, not too small, the arrangement position must be balanced. There are species of wings like the swallow or a crane called “fake crane”. There are types of horizontal shoulder blades (orchid players like the one that is horizontal to gourd), petals, sepals white as jade and wax, when shooting light up like a meteor. Throat of flowers must not be smudged, multicolored, must be clean and have a uniform color … Mutant orchids are analyzed by orchid players according to the characteristics and criteria to evaluate beautiful orchids A beautiful flower must have all the criteria: The flower structure must be balanced, the petals and sepals are in balance, not too big, too small, smooth lips like snow, clean throat, clear hydrolyzed nose, aroma. seductive. If all of these criteria are met, they will be graded as the highest cotton, if lacking, then downgrade. Why spread expensive mutations? Professor Quy answered: Firstly, it is rare, millions of new trees have one mutant tree. Plants have less vitality than other types, with a healthy vitality type, the cotton face is not beautiful. Mutant orchids can only clone naturally to retain the shape, structure of the plant and the floral structure of the mother plant. If the nucleus implants tissue, it is, in principle, impossible to multiply. Because too many growth regulators are used, the plants at flowering are deformed. How to recognize mutant spread? Professor Tran Duy Quy affirmed, playing mutant orchids or playing normal orchids must have knowledge of farming. The orchid player must know to meet the 4 requirements of care: First, orchids like moisture but not too much water, like sunlight but not direct sunlight, like the wind but not too strong wind, like the temperature but must not be below 5 degrees and not higher than 42 degrees. Ensuring those four conditions to play spread. Mutant orchids must be balanced Second, want to distinguish an ordinary flower plant from a mutant orchid, in addition to distinguishing morphology of the leaf stems, it is imperative to have blooming flowers to distinguish. “The most famous morphological taxonomists in the world without flowers would dare not identify the scientific name, let alone normal players,” Quy warned. According to Professor Quy, orchids mutate from blooming to dying, lasting from a few weeks to a month, depending on the species. The flower player only keeps the flower at its best, then cuts it off to preserve the tree. If you play flowers until they fall, the flowers will take all the nutrients of the mother plant, which is very difficult to recover. Why there are several hundred billion orchid pots, Mr. Quy said, because it is the top, rare, beautiful type and other reason is the size of the orchid pot. “For example,” Peking Beauty “tree, 1 kie costs 5 billion. For a 2m tall tree, you can make 50 kie, each 4cm long, multiply by 5 billion to get 250 billion. So, seeing people say that the pot is a few hundred billion dong, you have to hear that the pot is short or thick, many bodies or less, ”explained Professor Tran Duy Quy. In the 5-pointed white-winged mutant orchid, it is divided into the popular, medium, medium, high, high, and special types. The popular type has 5 Phu Tho white wings, 5 HO white wings, 5 Ha Tinh white wings, 5 deer-eyed white wings, 5 Lac Long Quan white wings, 5 Da Bac white wings, 5 Nghe An white wings, 5 Lam white wings marine. The more upscale part has Snow White, Plây-ku Eyes, Beauty of Binh Duong, Grasslands, Anonymous Beauty … High-end orchids Juliet, Ngoc Son, Vinh Khang, Great Butterfly. In particular, the top of the table is now the “Long Khanh Beauty” orchid that costs up to 40 billion VND / cm.
