My new cattleya

[Nico]

You're right, chidlove! It looks like purple cascade "fragrance beauty"! Mine has some little spots exactly like in the pictures of purple cascade "fragrance beauty". So..., it has a name

Hi, Corina! Nice to see you here! Is Hornbach Berceni, in Bucharest. Not many remained, but I am pretty sure they'll import some soon.

Hello and nice to see your wonderfull catt.
I love them.

No. This is not a Panda.

I've worked with these orchids before when I was working at an orchid nursery.

It's a very popular Cattleya hybrid (at least it is here in the US).

Let me think of the name for this and I'll get back to you, I forgot the name, it's been a while.

I think it's got the word "Paradise" in it.

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

Oops!

The word "Paradise" isn't part of the name.

It's Lc. Purple Cascade 'Fragrance Princess'.

I'm very sure of this ID.

Handled this plant numerous times till my face was blue.



Doh!!! Should've read the other posts first before I posted - other people identified it properly already.

No problem, King_ Now I have more opinions and it's a good thing for identifying the right name.

Happy new 2010 for you all! I wish you many and wonderful orchids!

[possible] Lc. purple cascade 'fragrance beauty' is now again in bloom after only a month from the day I bought it. Rewarding little flowers.
