Cattleya amethystoglossa
Some first bloom seedlings from my greenhouse in Miami! One is a line bred tipo and polyploid, obvious influence from ‘Orchidglade’ somewhere in its pedigree. The other is a first to bloom seedling from a batch of a selfed spotless variety. It bloomed as an unremarkable but I am still enjoying the rather large lip, hopeful to see how the rest of the batch bloom out.
These are the same age and grown on the same bench, one of the pictures shows the massive difference in size. The larger one also bloomed its first time with 8 flowers on a single inflorescence and grows like a weed. Here in Miami it has no rest and finishes 2-4 growths a year.
