Lc. Orglade's Grand "Yu-Chang Beauty"
Bought this in sheath a few weeks ago. Both flowers are almost as big as my hand, and slightly fragrant of sweet rose. Strong velvet texture.

Nice Tim, The flower looks bigger then the plant. Is the plant compact?

The plant is a bit smaller than most standard Catts I know of, but not by much. I'd say 12-18" tall, max. The plant has a very nice, upright growth habit though, which makes it perfect for growing under lights.

Very pretty flower. Excellent contrast with the white and purple.

Very nice!
The Orglade's Grand is an excellent semi-alba cattleya.

Beautiful, Tim. I've had one for several years, and just can't get it to bloom. Maybe if I show it a pic of yours--?

I love it! The ones with a contrasting lip always seem to get me.
