    Cool Cattlianthe Romantic Paradise

    I discovered a pretty pink cattleya type orchid blooming in the greenhouse today. I cannot believe it opened so fast. Last week during watering, it was still in bud, but today... tada...

    Cattlianthe Romantic Paradise (Cattleya Candy Tuft 'Taffy' x Guarianthe skinneri 'Heiti Jacobs' FCC/AOS)

    Thanks everyone. No, Al, the blooms are actually pretty small compared to the standard cattleyas we have. I am glad everyone enjoyed this one.
