...or is it?

This is one of the first chids I ever purchased. Got it from a reputable dealer and it has bloomed in the past.

I ordered it as C Penny Kuroda and that is indeed what the tag says but that little voice in my head tells me it can't be

All the C Penny Kuroda pics I've been able to find show the plant with spots, which makes sense when you see it's parentage (50% guttata). The other background plants are: gaskelliana, mossiae, trianae, labiata and lueddmanniana.

If it weren't for the huge percentage of guttata in the plant, I wouldn't be questioning it but

The bloom is about 5 inches in size, fragrant and the stunning lip is covered in fuzzy sparkly stuff

OK Susie Q... beautiful flower but where's the pool!!!!!! What... afraid if the plant dangles over the pool the flower will dive in for a dip????? Well....????

Gorgeous bloom. I only hope my Catts will bloom so nice (though mine are mostly yellows and oranges).

I bow to the Catt bloomers.

So far, I haven't rebloomed any of mine. Methinks me needs more light....

Another trip to the store for T5s might be in my future this weekend....shh don't tell hubby.
