Beautiful colouring this year. Third flowering I've had. THe shape could be better but overall I am really impressed with the colour which was hard to capture. It's more of a deeper purple but the camera seems to lighten it. I need to learn white balance or something I guess.

It's a beauty!
What size is the flower and the plant .. would you consider it to be compact ?

Yeah it's a compact plant, the bloom is a good size when compared to the overall size of the plant. Do you want me to measure the bloom and the pot?

Wow that is really pretty! It's hard to believe a compact can look so "large" in presence. Does it have a fragrance?

No fragrance that I can detect. Yeah it's a good one and grows very cold to hot. I have the minimums at 34F or so and the maximums in summer can exceed 105F occasionally.

I have to say it grows beautifully for me.

Bolero - I think the measures would be awesome especially for those curious about this particular orchid.
as space is an important factor for many.
