Do not adjust your screen folks! This is the true color of these flowers. I also do not use or even own any photoshop type programs. I am always blown away by the vivid neon pink that these flowers produce. I think anyone living in the 80's would have been very jealous of this color!! lol I should also mention that the two bottom flowers that are shielded from the sun by the top flowers are more whitish pink and do not exhibit the vivid pink coloration in the way that the flowers in bright sun do. I dont know if the portray that, but it goes to show that bright light can really enhance the color of Cattleya flowers. There were also two more blooms that the plant aborted for some reason. I think jumping lizards may have injured them, but who knows. Enjoy!

Beautiful flowers, Steve! Too bad Timothy Leary is no longer with us to enjoy those colors. :-)
