C. Hardyana (usual color)
 

Some time ago I bought seedlings of C. Hardyana, waiting for a yellow (or cream color) petals/sepals. This is the first one to blooming, and as you can see it has ordinary color:(
I have five more seedlings....and time to wait!

If you're unhappy with your plant's "ordinary color" blooms, Mauro, I know of quite a few people who would gladly do you the favor of taking it off your hands. :-)

Actually, I really would like to find a Hardyana one day--regardless of the color. I haven't seen a picture of one yet that I didn't think looked stunning.

This may not be the color that you wanted, but this is really beautiful in my eyes!! :drool: :D

Thanks for posting this classic primary. What an interesting form.

I think its stunning and would gladly take it off your hands, if you don't want it any longer.:evil::biggrin:

Hi Steve!

What do you mean calling me "Mauro"?:rofl:
I hope one day to have a yellow hardyana as him! Mauro's Hardyanas are probably the best Hardyanas I ever seen!

Hi Jan!

One third! WOW!!:D With five more seedlings I have a chance!! Thanks for this info!

Frederico, so sorry!!! I'm just so used to seeing you two Brazilians regularly showing off such fantastic plants and flowers that I sometimes get you confused. I promise to do a better job of reading the correct names next time.

And Mauro, I will gladly take one of your C. Hardyanas also, now that you've received such a nice endorsement from Frederico. :-)

STeve, did you forget my fierce dragon?:rofl:

Frederico, don't worry, I'm dividing some of my yellow/cream this year and a piece is yours! They are preparing to bloom and it's not good to cut now.

Hi Mauro!

Thank you!:banana:

but do not hurry, let them "ask" to be divided (usualy orchids do that!)

You gotta love orchids where even the 'average' varieties are stunning! I still can't believe I don't have this hybrid in my collection yet. That will have to change!
