Neostylis Fuchs Ocean Spray (Neost. Lou Sneary X Rhy. coelestis, 1992)
Funny but the outside pix color is wrong ! The last 2 in the sink under track halogen lights and the color is true ! It's NOT blue, it's more violet. Working on a trade with someone for some Ctsms !

I love it. It is a good looking orchid. Why do you want to trade it? It is so pretty.

Willeke, mainly I don't like the color and I'm in the middle of a space crisis ! That makes it easy to let go ! All my chids are growing UP and most of them are Catasetum alliance so we're talking UP !!! Not too many juveniles left so, of course, I'm trading for more ! Juveniles, that is !

Now I understand. To bad. It is such a sweet one. The lack of space is always a problem.

Beautiful plant Merlyn. Too bad I don't have any Ctsm's to trade or I'd be there in a heartbeat. 
I also want to know how you're growing it; watering schedule, ferts, how long it's been in PrimeAgra in that pot. I've been toying with that idea in a similar pot with one of my Neostylis or Ascofinetias but just haven't taken the plunge.
Cheers.
