BLC Toshie Aokie 'Pizzaz'
Went for a ride in the Redlands (since I didnt get a chance to go in the swamps )and somehow ended up in an orchid place/store/tent anyway I bought my first blooming Cattleya. I thought the color and scent were awesome so I took her home. I'm glad the tag was legible or Id never know what I bought. Hope you guys like it as much as I do ....Wait there's no e in Aoki LOL

Thanks im glad you guys liked it like I did.
I catch myself staring at it and smelling it, its getting a little weird but I bet Im not the only one doing that.
By the way I happened to go into another place that was full of all different plants from palms to roses,water lillies, and everything imaginable ok almost everything. Anyway finally I found some orchids laying on a table and yup, I got 2 more. One was unlabled and so it will remain a mutt probably but it looked cool so I got it. The other one had a label but I haven't been able to find it by any web searches. So I know one or many of you will be able to tell me ....what it means. L.C.chill and under that L.C Baron....any ideas?
