Cattleya Hardyana 'Sunlight'

This Hardyana and 'White Face' are my favorites. Sunlihgt has a wonderful lip (which color hue is not properly captured in these photos - it is a little darker and redder) with the striation going down to reach the edges. Besides the overal beauty, it has a strong, really strong and wonderful fragrance!

No way could I pick between the two. I just love them so much! The beauty and innocence of them. And I know this sounds crazy, but these flowers have a vulnerability about them that brings tears to my eyes.

That's because you have a poetic soul, Debs!:)
