Beautiful!!!  You picked up some nice plants in FL. It looks like the center of the lip is a darker yellow/orange. Is it darker, or is it just shadows that give that impression?

Edward, yours is even more beautiful than mine, I must say. The blush on the throat is much larger and more intense in color...good for you!

The 'YK2' is a nice clone that it is able to bloom while it is a very young plant. When the plant gets larger, the flower will also become larger and good shaped.
Howard, was it cold in Michigan?
If it is cold, the lip or even entire bloom does not extend well.
