Very nice. Bad thoughts are that I remember these Catts when they were first sold as mericlones. Some of the 1st Catts to be cloned. (USA)

Thank you all for your appreciatve comments. I've done my best for the photos, but remain self-displeased as they are nothing like true colours.

True colors in photos are hard to capture. Digital cmeras don't help unless they are the most expensive.
My problem was with the photos back when these & other plants were first mericloned (decades ago), the flowers didn't have the same colors as the photos either & that was with a film camera. |

Hooray - sunny day. Better light for pictures. I could bring the plant outside. It's a pity that I cannot share the fragrance, like violets in the spring. Enjoy.
