Default Catasetum schmidtianum

Catasetum schmidtianum normally has heavily spotted, dark colored flowers. Mine is a not so common clear flower, with less spots.
These Catasetuns from the Amazon region do best in warm places with high air humidity.

Very nice Mauro! I hope you can get into Catasetinae as much as you are into Catts! This one looks great.

Yes, Mauro, you are right. Often you can see very dark, almost dramatic, if you want, flowers of Catasetum schmidtianum. Yours just shows beautiful diversity of the species. I remember for not so long time ago catwalker showed couple of other colour form of Catasetum schmidtianum and I have to say that all of them are just lovely!

I love the pointed shape of the flowers, and their bright yellow color.

I haven't been corrupted by the catasetinae virus...yet. I haven't had the guts to try my hand at this alliance. It would appear that I need to watch myself when treading in this realm of orchidboard. I've already been bitten by a variety of orchid bugs.

And your Fredclarkeara will flourish!

don't worry.. my plants listen to middle age Kitsch sometimes...

Saelic, saelic sî diu wunne,
saelic sî des wunnebernden meien zît,
saelic sî der vogel singen,
saelic sî diu ouwe, saelic sî der walt!
man siht bluomen manicvalt
durch daz grüene gras ûf dringen,
mêr dann ich erdenken kunne.
tanzen springen suln die jungen widerstrît.


...and they love it!!!
