Cattleya Hardyana (dark)
Here's one of the dark colored, the other is opening today. Too bad that they didn't invent a way of sending fragrances through the Internet yet. This flowers' perfume is oustanding. This is one of the reasons I grow so many of them.

Stunning flower, Mauro! I wish someone would invent a way to send fragrances to someone via email, as I would be creating a list of the flowers you've shown pictures of that I would like to smell.

Mauro, as much as I like your semi-alba, and yellow ones, this one is really the classic of the bunch! About as perfect as an orchid can be. WOW.

As much as I loved that 'whiteface' variety, this one just might take the cake!! Amazing flower. I cant wait to see the other dark one you have as well. Again, great growing!!

I like this one more than the others. Must be the color. Congrats! I would grow as many as I could as well if they smelled great. In fact I am growing as many as I can of the orchids that smell great.
