Cattoniphila "Jamaic Fire"
I've always loved the colors of "Why Not". Here it is crossed with Myrmecophila bryisiana for "Jamaica Fire".
Two large at least 2 1/2 ft, spikes just beginning to open from the Redlands.

I've never cared much for Why Not (rather odd as I like reds and yellows) but I do like this. Very nice!

I love those colors. Long spikes always make an orchid look dramatic. Good growing.
