The plant is Slc. Mine Gold 'Corona' AM/AOS. It is a plant that captured my eye at last years show (pic #2) and again this year (pic #1).

In fact I do - it was part of the Foothills Orchid Society Display with various members contributed their plants for that display.

According to Oscarman, the plant at the show and the one I ordered from Cloud's are not the same plant. The picture on Cloud's site sure looks a whole lot like it though. Hopefully, it comes close. They won't be shipping it till May 5  so have a while to wait before I even get it. |
