Ctsm. Orchidglade 'York'
Not growing as strong as 'Davie Ranches' and 'Jack of Diamonds', but pretty nice.

The colors are just amazing....its like a splash of Jackson Pollock canvas.
The form is typical of a Catasetinae.
Is that a male/female flower or just female?

I think I can see a trigger which would make it male?
I recently got given a tiny Orchidglade as a freebie with an order. If it turns out as nice as that it's a keeper!

Yes there are 3 male flowers. The others in the background already started to wither. Both parents and consequently the hybrid 'Orchidglade' belong to section Anisoceras, which means that one trigger of a male flower goes downward and the other one is bent upward.
