Pot. Petitpetit Lucky in bloom for the first time
I bought this as a 'medium' seedling this spring from Cloud's. I wasn't expecting blooms for about 2 years. So I was very pleased to see two buds appear from a very short sheath in a matter of weeks and produce these two adorable blooms! They are about 2 3/4 inches wide. I had just re-potted it in July, not knowing it was going to bloom but it didn't seem to set it back!

Thanks! I'm really pleased with the colour combo and the picotee on the top of the lip. I think I can expect more blooms at one time in the future from this one. It is kind of lemony scented but only close up to the bloom.
