    Love love love the Jewel boxes! I have one that we ended up with somewhere along the line, identified it at the Orchid Show a couple of years ago. I don't know which, if any, named variety it is, but dang, its like weed to grow! I'm not sure you can kill it... and it blooms and blooms and blooms. So pretty!

    It is an old cross, but 'Scheherazade' and 'Dark Waters' were two of my favorite catt cultivars.

    In my excitement to see one of my favorite Cattleyas, I think I failed to mention how very much I like yours, Dorsetman! It's just stunning.
