Lc. Purple Cascade 'Fragrant Beauty'
Hello all,
Some of you may remember this one from my past. I got this one as a prize from the first orchid board contest (best article contest). The prize was like $70 towards purchases from the Orchid Shop. That online orchid seller from Canada.
Anyway. This plant suffered. I attempted to semi hydro it in a glass jar. No air circulation. It quickly rotted. But two years later, it finally decided to bloom!! This is the first bloom for since I got it, and it has another spike in sheath!!
Sorry about the picture quality.
