Default Yam Queen Adelia ‘Kiilanj’

Well I may have had the last Cattleya name screwed up but I'm pretty sure about this one..... Oh please say it's correct.... Pleeese

I know both of these look almost exactly the same. This picture was taken without adjusting the white balance.




This one was taken with changing the white balance to the yellow/orange scale.

My neighbor recently gave me a (dying) division of this one. The tag said, Yam.Queen Adelia 'Kiilani.'

My eyes aren't the best but my tag has a "J" on the end. So "I" or "J" is close enough for me....

Thanks

OK, you're correct. My lower case "j" probably is a lower case "i". Getting old sure isn't any fun!!!!

I don't want to be a party-pooper or wet blanket, Doc, but I've got this same orchid (I think.?!?...you've got me wondering now )...and the tag says Yam Queen Adelia 'Kiilani', just as mmursuli's does. Of course, the tag name on mine could be an error especially considering where I bought it. It was just a Lowes' bag baby when I got it almost 3 yrs. ago and has bloomed nicely since. In fact, I have more than one (3, I think)...2 small ones and one a little larger. It's one of my favorites. Pretty, don't you think?!

By the way, your photo is outstanding. I so wish I had a nice camera and camera skills as good as you, as well.

Take care,
Vicki

Vicki, you're not being a "wet blanket". I did look it up and it should be an "I" at the end. My tag is a typo.
