Hey everyone,

I've been waiting for this one to open for a while now! Been checking it every day before anything else and when watering my plants this morning I completely forgot about it and only noticed it at the end...What a nice surprise it was!

Flowers are about 1/3 bigger and much darker than when it bloomed in autumn (October? Can't remember).

Here we go!

Totally in love with the lip! Such a beautiful contrast...white on the borders (I thought it was spotless, until I zoomed in and noticed the veins!) and then that dark chocolate 'dust'!

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Yéri~

Such a beauty! Another one of my faves is xyrekes-pale salmon color and dark browny lip. Does take up quite a bit of room but sooo worth it!
