Hi,

I am putting up images of one of my fav Catts, this from its last boom; it is now in sheath again on two bulbs, a third bulb is maturing fast: Blc George King 'Serendipity' AM/AOS.

The blooms of this glorious, beautifully shaped hybrid open pale pink, and, as they mature, they turn peach...and then APRICOT. It is also deliciously fragrant.

It is, in fact, I now get from yr comment...a show! The subtle morphing of the color! Better than anything we will see in any imax re comic heros anything in 3D.

Yr cliche comic heroes also do not have ruffled lips.

Actual color of this flower is misrepresented here.
Perhaps it's the light, or the camera, or both.

The upper left corner of both pictures do show real color of the blooms though.

I have not noticed this so called "Salmon pink" flowers turn anything near yellow. They stay that way the whole time.

I have to say it smells really nice.

I'm posting a picture of nicely grown specimen from a recent show, which shows the true color of this hybrid.
