Here is my first bloom of this clone of this species. I think that it's been mericloned. Flowers aren't as big as 'Carlos Arango', but they're still nice.
Very very pretty colours! and as you say it's a nice one.
I had never seen this and imagined a Red coloured flower... reading the name in the title thread . I now know better! The colours are superb & I look forward to seeng this orchids' future blooms too!
Thank you for posting!
Wow! Great lookin' C. mendelii! I've seen small mericlones of this offered by someone in Arkansas. The photo he was using to sell it was not that great. Your photo really pushes me to search it out.
