Laeliocattleya Wrigleyi 'Blue Lagoon', HCC/AOS - may be not exciting for many here, but since me and Cats are in constant "war" it is always huge success for me and any Cat that blooms:-) The color is amazing, very light violet, hard to capture, love it. It was given to my by one of our members last year, piece is also at the dog park tree :-)

Did you say that you mounted a division of this plant in a tree at the dog park? Lol how's it doing?

You're the Johnny Appleseed of orchids

Yes I did, it was given to me by one of OB members, and she donated it for doggy park project, but it was large plant so she said it needs to be divided which I did. The piece mounted is doing ok, there was new growth that rotted due to our insane rains but there is another one starting now. I must say even my "protected" division inside the balcony had 2 growths that rotted in the process, so I do find this one "complicated" :-) I am so happy it does bloom for me ;-)

What a delightful flower....the color and form is a classic Cattleya bloom right to its ruffled lip....of course you can grow Catts easily if you can manage to bloom those amazing miniatures....

:-) Many thanks for your kind words Bud :-) Yes, this one is cool with me, and few others, I have sheath now on luteola that looks like it may produce bloom, so I am keeping my fingers crossed, last year I lost the spike before opening to rot :-) And there is few more that do bloom for me every year, Cats I mean, but quite a few stubborn once :-) :-) :-)
