Blc. Goldenzelle 'Lemon Chiffon'
 
A division of an original mericlone from Stewart Orchids. Musky, soapy fragrance like Cattleya dowiana. I swear I won't kill this one!

Beautiful!!! I am very impressed not only with the color and the edges, but that you have so many blooms together. Thanks for sharing!

this is gorgeous!
I have one which is a cross with itself and its actually white with a gorgeous cherry purple & yellow lip! I posted it about a month or so ago on this board. :biggrin:

Beautiful! I really should purchase one of these. I've always liked them. Good growing.

Thanks, all!

Wow~ that looks amazing!
I have one in bloom with three flowers. Is your photo showing accurate real life color of the flowers? The reason I'm asking is because mine is more greenish, or very light yellow. Or does the color intensify over time??

Also, I note that the shape on your flowers are so nice. Mine has sepals curled out looking rather strange.

The scent is just so wonderful, nothing I've ever smelled before.

Gorgeous!

NYCorchidman - The color deepens as the flowers age and is accurate as far as my camera reads it. Flower shape is also consistently good.

I mentioned that it is an original mericlone because this plant has been re-cloned from clones and the plants seen today have drifted from the original source material. That may explain the color and shape variation you see in your plant.

Wow!!! This is an exquisite flower. The colors are so nice. I wish I would have kept mine. I sold 90% of my orchids recently and this was one of them. I may have to find another one. Great flowers. Congrats.

The yellow with red lips looks great. I also like your photography.

Thank you. Good to know!

Well, I love the color and especially the shape on yours.
Let me know if you ever plan to make division of your plant. :)
