C. Chocolate Drop offspring
C. Chocolate Drop was very popular a few years ago. I never cared much for that style of Cattleyas (small star shaped flowers, high flower count). Yet, I am intrigued by what it can pass on to it's offspring, so I have purchased a few seedlings with it as a parent.
The first one is blooming now. This is a new SVO cross: (Rth. Burana Angel 'SVO' HCC/AOS x C. Chocolate Drop 'SVO' AM/AOS)
Flower is not large (abt. 2.1/2" NS), but it has pretty good shape is a super heavy substance.
