L. lundii ... happy dance time
Got this as a sizable division from a friend of mine this past summer. He obtained it from a gent who could not bloom it. My friend then proceeded to bloom it with nary a problem at all. Knowing how much I love mini's, he then passed on a division to me. Much to my excitement, it has bloomed for me with ease.
This is the only member of the Cattleya alliance I own which blooms BEFORE producing leaves from the new growth. (While I know there are other species that do so, all those I own and almost I see bloom after new growth matures.) Flowers have quite an nice fragrance too.
