Featherstone Orchids from Crystal River had some at the Sarasota Orchid show last Saturday. They are at all the shows around Tampa so keep your eye out. |

What a gracious plant!
Congratulations Ramón! 
I was a bit suspicious towards it for a while, but I got a couple of back bulbs for two years ago .... well. Anyway, this year it will bloom for the first time for me, we'll see .... |

Very pretty Ramon, I like that little "beard" they have. What is the fragrance?

Very nice, Ramon. Can you find Clowesia rosea in Europe? I think it's practically identical to Rebecca Northern in shape; however, its scent (to my nose, at least) is a bit stronger than Rebecca Northern's (kind of like cinnamon). Congratulations on your beautiful blooms.
