One of my favorite minicatts Male
Default One of my favorite minicatts

A cross a friend of mine made:
Slc Charming Jewel x (C. harrisoniana x C Leah Addis)

Color is affected somewhat by light intensity during bud development. The colors prtrayed here are actually very accurate on this one -- especially with the lip. It really is this color of red with an almost electric/luminous fuschia edging. Has a citrus fragrance.

Now that is a super gorgeous Catt!! That was a perfect cross, and the offspring could not have been any better. I would love to have one! Is the cross registered?

Paul that's beautiful. I love how the lip is not quite red but not quite fuschia either, and there's even a hint of orange. Very nice!
