    Default Broughtonia sanguinea var aurea var aquinii

    I posted a first bloom seedling of this variety a few weeks ago. Now a second sibling has bloomed. Quite intense coloring in the lip! These are supposed to be warm growers but seem to thrive in my more cooler-intermediate growing conditions.

    Very nice! The crepe looking petals makes it look delicate. I am also wondering if it is fragrant?

    Thank you Matt! No fragrance. I agree they look delicate but they are pretty sturdy -- these have been open for a couple weeks and should last another couple weeks.
