First bloom on Laeliocattleya "Amethyst Star"
I bought this back in March, and it has finally bloomed. It's my first cattleya-type orchid, so I'm very excited! But I can't get an accurate photo of the color--with one camera, it looks too blue and with my other camera it looks too pink, despite adjusting the settings, white balance etc. The third photo is altered to try and show more what my eye sees. Regardless, I'm very pleased with the flowers, and the plant is sending up a second flower spike, so the blooms should last for awhile.
