    Default "Purple Queen"

    I bought 'Purple Queen' because plant was healthy, but spike was bent, but not quite broken....
    I've supported spike with clip on stick & the buds are starting to open
    I did this once before for a phal & had blooms for a month.

    Nice collection of blooms!

    BTW, Tim, that Purple Queen is an Epicatt, I believe, a hybrid between epidendrum and another cattleya hybrid.
    Cheers. Hoa.
