    Default Odm Cynthia Hill x cirrhosum

    It ought to do better than this - in terms of flower count; but hey, cirrhosum is a favourite of mine - such a pretty flower ( this hybrid is ¾ cirrhosum, since Cynthia Hill is a primary hybrid from cirrhosum x something else which I have forgotten, and don't want to stop and look up in Orchidwiz, since I am stealing 5 minutes off from cooking lunch to do this post, before I forget ) and cirrhosum is soooo easy to lose ( rots off when I turn my back, after buying from a certain orchid nursery not more than a million miles from Ecuador) so I guess I have to say, thank you orchid - you made my day when I found you in flower hidden by a much bigger plant when I went through a neglected bench of orchids yesterday...
    Must go, something will burn...

    They are quite unique and very pretty! Reminds me of a Spectabile only because of the curly petals.
