The tepals are in the middle of transitioning to the pink colour - so still got the Hawaiian appearance!

I don't grow many Catt's but this is really nice. What is the size of the plant and flowers please? I might want to make some room.

PL ------ just checked for you! The average height for this particular plant is approximately 18 cm. Not too tall ----- that's from the rhizome to the base of a leaf. And then, with the leaf included --- maybe 26 cm maximum height approximately ----- as in from the rhizome region, the whole plant probably will never exceed 26 cm in overall height. The bulbs are relatively narrow. Less than 1 cm bulb width.

Lovely looking blooms.
Have you had this from seedling size? If so how long before it bloomed?
I've been looking to buy one but they are quite expensive for the size being offered.

Thanks for joining us too Diane! I didn't have this from seedling size. When it first arrived --- it had flowers on it already (upon arrival). I think this one was grown from seedling size at 'Woolfe Orchids', which is where I bought this one from. I think that Woolfe Orchids doesn't sell the pinks now ----- which this one was just one of the siblings when they did sell pinks.
But ----- circulating around Australia is C. Caudabec Candy 'Burgundy' ----- which has bigger size dots, and a very nice burgundy/purply colour. That one is very nice indeed ------ the one with the 'Burgundy' cultivar name that is.
