Ok I think this will be as good as it gets this round ...

Jalapa 'angel' fully opened

That is a magnificent flower...just right for the Holidays....

Nice color. I believe the correct name is C. Jalapa Angel. (no quotes)

....hmmm dont think so since it is Lc. Jalapa 'Bill Teel' x Slc. Bright Angel 'Red Gold' .....and thats all that is on the tag from the grower who is also the guy who crossed it.

came from Whipporwill orchids Tom and Barbara Larkin and A friend of mine emailed him to get the name since it did not have the info as to the actual registered name on the tag and he responded that it is registered as Jalapa 'Angel' but the Lc.x Slc. would not make a C. anything. I am assuming Lc. x Slc. = Slc. just as a Slc. x Lc. = Slc. right?

Fabulous color!!! Amazing that its a first flowering, its going to be outstanding when its specimen size!! Im so jealous!! Good job!

Gorgeous! The color is fabulous! :wtg:
