As mentioned under the 'Marty's Orchid' thread, I have both of these clones. 'Linwood' is a spontaneous 4N mutation, that appeared in a batch of 'Carmela' meristems.

'Linwood' is significantly bigger, but it sets fewer flowers (max 9) on the spike. This year my plant has 5 flowers.

Got a decent photo of it today. 'Carmela' is in spike with 15 buds' should be able to add a photo by next weekend. I hope to be able to get a photo of the two of them, side by side.

Update: Here are two photos, one showing the two clones in the same frame, and one showing 'Carmela', which has a spike with 15 flowers this year.

While I personally prefer the clear background of 'Linwood', three times the number of flowers on the spike makes it hard to ignore 'Carmela'.
