Lc. Green Veil "Dressy"
Just bought this beauty at the Westminster Mall orchid show, I was very good and only made one purchase (though I don't really even have room for this one)! Couldn't resist the pretty green leaves and purple contrasting lip. Sorry for the poor photo quality, I only have my cell phone handy. The lip is definitely more of a true royal purple (but fairly vibrant) in real life, it seems to be leaning more toward magenta here.

I would certainly have found a way to make room for that cutie. Love the greens with colorful lips.

The contrast between the greeny white and the creamy white is amazing! And a mini too?

Optimist, the blooms are about 2 1/2" (6.35 centimeters) across. I will post more photos if I can get the colors to work, for some reason the lip keeps turning magenta/pink in my photos but it's actually royal purple in person.
Edit: Whoops, just realized that this falls under the category of a compact catt rather than a mini - sorry, I'm still new at this!

I have this one too, got it this spring at Marlow Orchids open house. I couldn't resist the blooms either! At the moment I'm trying to just keep the poor thing alive
