Cattleya trianaei īLa Moradita 72' - from Ecuagenera
I was really quite miffed that I would be in Tahiti when this one flowered. It was only by deciding that I would have a quick look in the greenhouse to check on things. I peered down the greenhouse and there it was - all three buds opened on the same day. No discernible scent, yet, and I'm not even sure if it does have a scent but the flower is just plain ordinary gorgeous! I wont have to wait another year to see it bloom again.

For some reason the pics I attached to the post are not showing. Any idea why?

Nice, looks like it has some more opening to do though. I have had flowers from other plants take months to open and decide to open just as I go away. I hate that.

Very considerate of it to bloom before you left. It's lovely.
