Mystery Catt Hybrid ID'd!

[catherinecarney]

Hi all--

Finally have a positive ID on a catt hybrid I've had for several years. The tag was rather worn when I got it from the local conservatory in their "used plant sale," but it's a reliable February-March bloomer with a light sweet scent.

The tag read C ty. Hadole Notch 'paradise' as near as I could make out, so I've been Googling that off and on to see if I could find a match. This time when I started my search, Google's auto fill function popped up with Clty. Haddie Notch 'paradise,' and sure enough, there was my mystery orchid. I've added a plastic tag with the correct name for now, but in the long run I'm going to tag it with one of the copper labels that I can tie around the rhizome.

Just a couple more mystery orchids to go....
