Here's another first bloomer. Only one flower, but the plant has three new growths starting, so it should be something else next year. I like it a lot!

That's a great-looking bloom, Kim. Are the flowers of this species fragrant? Is it an easy grower? I haven't tried this one before, but I might have to give in to temptation, as I find the color contrasts quite attractive. Congratulations!

Steve

Stunning!
I got one of these catts off ebay recently in sheath.
I'm hoping for a bloom sometime this fall.
Hope it looks half as good as yours!

Thanks everyone. Steve, no fragrance that I can detect. This is one of the best growers I have, so I would call it an easy grower.
