SVO New Cattleyas 2024!

[drey415]

I got these:
SVO9533t - C. dowiana (C. dowiana 'Midas Touch' AM/AOS x self)
SVO9654t - C. dowiana (C. dowiana v. aurea 'SVO Gold Lip' x self)
SVO10159 - Iwan. Appleblossom (Dial. Snowflake 'H and R' 4n x Blc. Orange Nugget 'Kadaoka')

I saw SVO were selling these dowianas at the Pacific Orchid Expo this past weekend and debated on getting one. I'm glad I waited.

I tried so hard to keep my order small - so many other things I'd love to grow. I would order several of every dowiana selfing he offered if I truly had the space, but alas I don't. I've been after a 4N Richard Mueller for years, and I'm so glad he selfed his breeding plant so there are more for all of us to grow.

SV10263O - 3inch Bl. Richard Mueller (Bl. Richard Mueller '4n' x self)
SVO9654t - 3inch C. dowiana (C. dowiana v. aurea 'SVO Gold Lip' x self)
SVO10037 - 3inch Enc. phoenicea (Enc. phoenicea 'FloraFarm' AM/AOS x Enc. phoenicea 'SVO Hot Lips')
SVO9634 - 3inch Lc. Callistoglossa (L. purpurata f. werkhauseri striata 'Diamond Orchids' x C. warscewiczii f. coerulea 'Erik Steven')
SVO10049 - 3inch C. Chocolate Drop (C. Chocolate Drop 'SVO' AM/AOS x self)

Geez. Just irresistible. I too was trying to keep it small... but I've been wanting a tenebrosa, and SVO's "gold lip" dowiana was so lovely.

Hope I didn't miss out, I've been away and I just saw this.

They have some really great selections among the species this year but I just do not have the room on the shelf or to hang more in the window. Cannot wait to see these orchids posted when they are in bloom!

Nothing for me this time around! I wish could keep dowianas warm enough but i cant. Cant wait to see the ones yall got!

[orchidman77]

Anytime I hear someone say "nothing for me this time" from an SVO drop I am IMMEDIATELY envious of their restraint!

[Louis_W]

You wouldnt be saying that if you saw me when Miranda posted his last crop...

I made a list but bought nothing. Decided to just wait for the open house and see what is still available. Looking forward to seeing posts with photos of the orchids that were purchased

I also succumbed to that plant drop as well...

They just arrived! Our crazy warm February is good for something. They look great, and the iwan apple blossom is in spike!
