I now understand why u pay so much for SVO Catasetums!
Wowza. I finally won 2 SVO orchids on ebay and for the original bid price. Hurray! Cuz yeah never happened b4. Sonlong story short. I won a mormode Jumbo bacia 'svo am/aos' × Mormode Virgen del valle 'Red and Burgundy. Then i won a Fredclarkea After dark. They are both HUGE! My after dark has at least 4 growths coming off of it and has recently just lost all blooms should be going to sleep soon.
My mormode has a baby growth coming in and has just finished blooming as well. Super excited about this. Amd for them to bloom next year!!
1st photos are of my aftrr dark only.
