luedde-violacea and Delta Sunset
Hi Orchid Board-ers!
Just a follow up pic of my luedde-violacea. Flowers are from the same plant, but on a different spike. The flowers are more uniformly-colored throughout the petals/sepals. And the petals/sepals are not as elongated as before.
The next flower is Delta Sunset. It is made up of only 3 species. (lueddemanniana X stuartiana) x cornu-cervi

 Stunning! 
What are their growing conditions and type of medium you have them in?  |

Delta sunset is my kind of hybrid. Very cool.

Bejay,
They are both beautiful...although I'm more partial to the luedde-violacea with it's deep glossy color and contrasting gold lip...ummmm |

They're both awesome! The color on the luedde is fabulous and the shape of the Delta Sunset is wonderful. I couldn't choose if I had to . Nice growing!
