Lc Amber Glow 'Magnificent'
This one was amongst the first hybrids I bought as a mericlone (a long time ago...)
It's not easy to grow and bloom, and only in the last two years I have some success!
I'm particulary happy 'cause I was out for a week, and we had very high temps (36° C!!), storms, the temps dropped quickly, and the flowers are still there, waiting for me  !!! |

I usually don't find yellows impressive, but these are. Congrats!

Hi!
Thank you for looking! Susanne, it has a not-so-strong lemmon/honey perfume! I finally realized that this plant does not like the same environment of other Catts; it grows better with less light (a little bit less than Phals need - look at the dark-green leaves!) and more moisture (I changed the media for sphagnum moss), and than....it works!
