Hi Katrina,
Yes, it is a compact plant, very much like a 'bigger' version of alaorii. The leaves are almost round/oval shaped. And untill now every new shoot just gives one flower. |

I love these alaorii crosses! They seem to come out as well shaped, mini versions of the non-alaorii parent. They're not easy to find though. Where did you get this one Pat?

Hi Steve,
I bought mine from an excellent German grower MSB orchids, Brigitte sells a lot of special Cattleya species and variaties, and good crosses. It's like a big orchid-Candy shop!
