Some Blooming of Cattleya Mossiae
Default Some Blooming of Cattleya Mossiae

Now in Venezuela we are in the peak of the Mossiae season blooming with an abundance of nice fragant flowers of different colors and sizes. The one I am showing here are common plants which I bought some years a go to a pesant. This specie is very prolific and I am sure that it can be considered as the best flower display cattleya of all over the world, even though the flower shape is not as perfect as lueddemannianas, but the last one will never give such a blooming show. It is very hard to find two mossiaes that they look alike, all of them have differences in the color and shape of the lip and as humans they are unique. Enjoy the pictures.

Fantastic, Bruno! I guess 'perfection' is in the eye of the beholder, but I call it perfection.

Bruno, the first and third pictures are absolutely breathtaking. I can only imagine how wonderful the scent of so many flowers must be. How old is your plant? Do you have it growing in a pot or is it mounted? Congratulation. That truly is a fantastic looking orchid (and it makes my three-flowered plant of this species look like a runt!).
