Rlc I just got at Lowe's
 
Is anyone familiar with Rlc Walanae Leopard 'Ching Hua' Spots?
I found a lot of orchid divisions at Lowe's this week and picked up three. All with names.
I'm going to try growing catts again. Maybe being here in a more humid environment will help. Plus I picked up a Brassavola Nodosa as well. Going to try to mount him.

That's a truly gorgeous cattleya, though my opinion may be biased. I love the catts with spots!

I've purchased a couple dozen orchids from Lowes, even some that are very rare. The only misgivings I have about Lowes, is that around 3/4 of the plants I bought there tested positive for either CMV or ORSV.

Edit: I don't know where you are in Alabama, but I can say that my orchids grow better in the Mississippi heat and humidity that I've seen anywhere else I lived, which includes CA, WA, IA, WI, and ME.

There is a Blc. Waianae Leopard 'Ching Hua' HCC/AOS (photo). Is there also a Blc. Waianae 'Ching Hua'?

Keith the Blc. (Brassolaeliacattleya) has been cahnged by taxonomists to Rlc. (Rhyncolaeliacattleya).
Hope this clears up your query.
