Fdk. Enter Light 'SVO Dark Beauty' FCC-AOS x Ctsm. Orchidglade 'JTM'???
Ok this was not what I expected, do you guys think this was a swapped label or could this be some recessive traits coming out. Hard to believe SVO made the mistake. There is a chance I could have swapped tags but I doubt it, I am pretty organized.
I expected a black flower but I am much happier with this. I already have a few black flowered plants and this is really cool. 20 x 3.5-4" flowers on two inflorescence, cool patterned and very frilly lip. Great lemony scent.
What do y'all think? Any guesses on parentage?

The bronzy color is not crazy, but the shape is really unlike either parent. Why not send a photo to Fred Clarke and ask him?
