Here's the picture of the Jean Monnier that I've been promising for so very long.

That looks awesome, mine didn't get to far along and it blasted, but there is next year.

The plant comes from Fred Clarke at Sunset Valley Orchids. All of his plants are superb and he is, by far, the finest grower of catasetinae species and hybrids that I have ever encountered.

I'm right behind you. Mine is in bud right now, a couple of weeks from bloom. In the past mine has bloomed lighter and more "orangey" than yours (more like the barthiorum parent), but I love the darker variety you have. Looks like more of the cooperi influence came through.

Mine came from JEM, (before they blew away), but I have bought from Sunset Valley too.

Sunset Valley is a great source for catesitenae, and Fred is a very helpful guy.

That is one of the prettiest I've seen so far, dvestpertilio. That color is beautiful.

I have 3 from JEM, from when they were still here in Delray Beach. Aren't they in Hawaii now?

Fred Clark's inventory is incredible. He's very available to help with any questions also. I keep promising myself that if I make any progress with the 3 I've got, I'm going for one of his black orchids.

Outstanding display, the dark orange spots in the flowers make them very attractive. Excellent acquisition.
