Cattleya warneri var coerulea 'Clownface'

[NeofinetiaCanada2014]

This is a first bloom seedling of Cattleya warneri var coerulea ('Do Suzuki' x self). The color is medium lilac with a white face lip, two yellow eyes and a dark grey lavender blotch. I named him 'Clownface' because the lip has features that remind me of a clown looking at me

The single flower is small at 12.5 cm (5 inches) but it is only first bloom. The flowers tend to get bigger as the plant gets larger so I'm hoping it to get to the 17-20 cm range in two years.

I got this plant from Orchids Limited. Thanks Jerry, Yoko and Jason!
