Default Cattleya bicolor and percivaliana alba

Two blooming species in my shadehouse, the first is the sub-species minasgeraisensis, considered to be the tetraploid C. bicolor.
The percivaliana in the photo resulted from crossing the alba clones 'Ayalla' and 'Oro Cochano'

I like to see the variability of the Cattleyas side by side like that. Nice!

Wow, I love the colour and substance of the bicolor! I like them both, but that's definately my favorite.
