The lip has great range of rich colours across all the blooms and lovely petal shape; I am quite lucky that all decided that they were happy enough to bloom this spring. So far I have not been without a blooming plant to set on the table.
It is very fragrant James, only early morning and gradually fades to nothing by midday.
I do have a question i would like to ask you James, and i open it up to anyone that might be able to help.
One of the Catts that had the 3 blooms had the last bloom to open start to fade before the others and got all mushy. I took pics to show you as well. I'm wondering if it is just a random case of it just faded or something else; hopefully not a pest. Its hard to tell as catt blooms tend to get gross when they fade naturally. The one that has the completely faded lip is the oldest flower and the other was starting to decline. This is how the other flower start to look and I removed it from the plant. The blooms have been open for 2-3 weeks.
