Best spotted Cattleya yet
I have invested in quite a few spotted Cattleya seedlings over the last 3 years. Today I saw the best one yet (not quite fully open):
Blc. Sun Spots x C. Caudebec, from Exotic Orchids of Maui
The lip is not perfect, but I have never seen petals like this in a spotted Cattleya before. The flower is a bit over 4" NS.
