    Default Blc. Ports of Paradise 'Gleneyries Green Giant' FCC/AOS

    For some reason one of the flowers opened upside down. Here's the good one.

    Beautiful, Ports of Paradise, Jeff! Sorry to hear about the flower that opened upside-down. This bloom is perfect though.

    Cheers,

    Very nice green.... I've taken an interest in the Cattleya other than the "purples" and so this is a beauty for me.

    My Ports of Paradise is still a baby. Nice to know what the bloom will resemble when it grows up. I'd like to see the upside down one, too!

    I'll try to get that tomorrow if I think about it. In the pic it's just below the other one.

    Cindi, here are both flowers together. I was disapointed the other one didn't turn over.
