Those are some beautiful blooms !!! Congrats !!! My only concern is that it doesn't look like a bellina to me. It rather looks like a violacea. The bellina is supposed to only have the pink/purple in the lower sepals, the lip and around the lip; the rest is green or bluish purple if it's a caerulea.

It's funny you should say that because I am, right now, surfing for Bellina and they look nothing like mine. I think mine is a violacea too.

It definetely doesn't look like what I know and love as bellina. Hopefully the seller will be able to do something about it. It is still a beauty. Good luck !!!

I actually don't want a replacement lol. I like this one. I'm only concerned that it might have been an order for a customer. I can always send it back to him. He doesn't live that far from me lol.

Agreed, it is not bellina, it is violacea. Very pretty though. I'd be hard pressed to send it back.
