Rlc unconditional love cattleya
My first cattleya finally bloomed. I bought it as a seedling at a orchid garden when I was in volcano, big island 2 years ago.
I love the green and purple combination.
the label said Rsc unconditional love. hope you guys like it.

Beautiful! - would you call that color chartreuse? It is a very nice combo with the lip color.

thanks for correcting the name .
I think they made a mistake while labeling the seedling. I did get it from the akatsuka orchid garden for $ 7 and I carried it with me back to L.A. with 2 other seedlings which have not bloom for me yet.
attached picture is my seedling with the tag when I first got it.
