I have a tag, but can't find this online, help?
 
I bought a Catt the other day that has a tag on it, but when I google it, I can't find the whole name. I do not know how to look these things up other than google and my books. If someone can find this for me or give me instructions on how to, I would be so grateful! Some things just don't come easy for me! :duh:
Lc. Little Oliver 'Tricolor' x C. intermedia 'Coerulea Lip'
I'd love a photo of what it will look like, and any information that is out there. :thanx:

Kiki - what exactly are you looking for? :hmm .. you have the full name ..
I tried the RHS registry and found Sophrocattleya Little Olive .. not Lc (Laeliocattleya) which it very well maybe as there are some laelia named species that have been changed to sophronitis ..

The Cattleya intermedia is a species

It may not have a registered name .. so it is named after it's parents .. I tried the parentage search and nothing came up .. :(

Here are the links to the Grex (Hybrid) search - Royal Horticultural Society - Plants: The International Orchid Register
and the Parent search - Royal Horticultural Society - Plants: The International Orchid Register
from the RHS
You can check for yourself in case I missed something :nod:
As far as photos, perhaps someone that has orchid software can help you out :D

Thanks to both of you. I was looking for a picture of what my orchid would look like when it blooms and any information on it that might be helpful. I appreciate your efforts!!!!! :)

The first name used to be Lc but "they" have changed it to Sc now

Sophrocattleya Little Oliver
(Sophrocattleya Stephen Oliver Fouraker x Cattleya walkeriana)

Lc. Stephen Oliver Fouraker: Orchids By Hausermann
x
Cattleya walkeriana var coerulea

Treat it as a Cattleya...I have Lc Stephen Oliver Fouraker and it's a huge plant with huge gorgeous blooms! Add C walkeriana v coerulea to that and

I can't wait to see your
It's gonna be a stunner!

Dorothy 05-06-2008 10:05 PM

I don't think it's var. coerulea becaise it has the cultivator name of 'Coerulea Lip' ..

cb977 05-06-2008 10:07 PM

I did an image search and found a number of them where just the lip is "blue"...they're gorgeous!

Oh wow, now I am getting excited. I found this at a little urban garden center where the main focus was bonsai and cacti...but the owner has a small orchid collection and had some orchids there....beautiful vandas and cyms! He couldn't remember where this catt came from. I didn't notice the tag behind the mount until later. There is a small spike on it. :)
Once again, thanks a bunch!
