Default Cattleya Pink Topaz ‘Waterford’

I was awarded an FCC/AOS yesterday at the Mid-Atlantic judging center for this one. Kudos to Peter Lin of Diamond Orchids for making the cross. The parents are C. praestans and C. wittigiana.

Thanks, the judges were very excited - they described the color as ‘hot pink’.

congrats! Waah I love the unity and form of the bloom as a group. It looks like as if the flowers are floating.
