cattleya bowringiana'coerulea
Hi My c.bowrigiana 'coerulea 'coerulea, was in bloom recently with six flowers colour was superb could not capture the real colour.
There is a history to this plant as I was told by some one who sold a Dn. to me,this is a seedling from a pod made by Mr.Florey Peter of Black and Florey of U.K.
I tried to do a selfing with out success and like to hear the comments.
regards
veekay
Please note that it is c.bowringiana 'coerulea' ,not c.skinneri 'coerulea' and accept my apologies.

Very nice. I love this color combo. Is it a lighter blue in natural light? My C. intermedias have that same color combo. I'm trying to find out which intermedia it is. Some say it isn't an intermedia but that is the tag from SBOE. I agree the lip isn't quite intermedia but some of them look very much like mine. How big is your plant and flowers? They are very nice. Do they have a fragrance? Nice growing here.
