Nice! Is this a seedling or a mericlone? I seem to recall they offered mericlones this summer.

Amazing the influence from the C. walkeriana. I have never seen a C. walkeriana, but I can always detect it's influence when I see posts of it's hybrids here on Orchid Board. This one is gorgeous! Congrats and thanks for sharing.

Thanks all. Yes walkerianas make great hybrids by increasing substance (firmer flowers) and great shape.
