Default Cattleya walkeriana

I had three buds on this, but temperatures near 39ºF (4Cº) blasted two - and several other buds, including four buds on three different walkerianas ). Anyway, the shape is reasonable and, as always, the perfume is fantastic.

Bummer about the bud blast but the color on this one is so vibrant! Very nice!

Sorry about the bud blast....That's why we grow orchids for their flowers. At least they didn't ALL blast. I've had some that did! Still a beauty.

Mauro, that looks like a pretty small plant. Am I correct? Would this be a good candidate for a window area with limited space? Great photos, as always.

4°C !! that seem pretty cold for your location, in fact it is the maximum cooler temp for safe food storage (0-4°C). Is that how you always get such crisp pictures.

Your picture is very stunning - I could almost smell the fragrance!
