LC Hiroshima Melody Blue in bloom

[andreaemilia]

This one had a strange bud, with no prior leaf before producing the bud
I expected it to be pretty
But Wow! It is a beauty!

[78Terp]

She sure is!

Fragrant?

[andreaemilia]

It has a light fragrance, sort of lemony

[catttan]

You said it. She's a beauty!

[Orquiadicto]

She really is a beauty. Congrats on blooming it. Could you show us the whole plant?

[andreaemilia]

I don t have a photo with the whole plant in bloom and no chance of making one until the next weekend. But the whole plant with the bud from last week is on the forum, in the category of photos NOT IN BLOOM, under the name of Strange bud on my Hiroshima MelodyBlue LC

There was no leaf prior to the bud due to the influence of Catlleya walkeriana (a parent) on this blooming

This is exactly what I think and the same for the citrus fragrance.

Very beautiful coerulea hybrid.
