Cattleya Summer Magic

[Bolero]

Cattleya Summer Magic (Cattleya Mari's Song x Cattleya Tangerine Jewel)

This one has come into flower, I love the splashes of colour but I don't like the reflexing. I don't think I have flowered this one before so I will keep it for a few blooms and I think it's worth keeping for sure! Grown in bark and perlite and in very cold conditions at times. It may not get better in shape but I think it's worth keeping for the colour, maybe even worth breeding with.

The color pattern is stunning!
I agree that if the shape improves with further blooms your little sweetie will be unstoppable
Pinks are my favorite too; I know it's old fashion but I love those pink/lavender crosses the best.
Where did you get it?
...and Gratz!

A nursery in Queensland, Australia - called Robertson Orchids. I don't think they export to the US though but I could be wrong.
