This is an orchid which I've been wanting for a really long time, but never had a chance to take it off the wishlist. I can't take credit for the blooms, I got it in bud at an orchid show a month ago.
The color is fantastic, when I saw these at the show I had to grab one! I've passed up buying this hybrid in the past because the flowers were more pink rather than purple.
Now I'm waiting for a similar hybrid to bloom (just received it a few days ago!), Dtps. Kenneth Schubert x Dtps. Purple Gem ‘aida’.
