Bayard, one day, you'll learn how to grow these things like the rest of us - not nearly that well!

That's fantastic!

This one is really eye-catching. I found myself returning to enjoy it a second time. Very nice!

I was gonna guess C. Loddigesii by some rupiculous Cattleya. Not quite! Beaufort itself! Love the pastels!

Wow, this is gorgeous! Do you know of anyone breeding/selling these? I saw one a year ago and fell in love, however it doesn't seem like a common orchid to come across.

We have the var. ‘Aileen’, much paler in color. Love the darker color. We have had one larger plant, be in bloom all year long. Does the color fade as the blooms age? Very compact grower.

That is one of the most beautiful Ive seen in that color range.
Hope it stays like that for a long time for you.
