    Default Cattleya Lana Coryell 'AlexL'

    One of the nicest pink small Catts around. I like this one a lot.

    Lana C is pretty in pink, but she struts her stuff in yellow, orange and creamy white too, with every shade of blush and peachy sunset blend in between, and even reds or strong lavenders could occur. Anyone who wants the perfect mini-catt in their favorite color should keep her in mind. Simple breeding (walkeriana x (coccinea x luteola)) with great results like this one.

    Haven't seen a red, white or cream as yet. 'AlexL' pinks & the other colours. Hybrids from it have bred very good in these colours. I have flowered some outcross seedlings which have been lemon to good yellows. Various LC's have bred some excellent Catts & probably will continue to. I have 2 crosses with one LC, one away which is a remake & my own cross of which I flowered the 1st plant this year I think. It was a pinky salmon colour, nothing in the way of shape but if it's the worst I'll be extremely pleased.
