    Default New floofie 'Loa'

    Hello E1,
    I went shopping today and found yet another new orchid nursery in my local area. They let people sell their plants 'on consignment' there. This one was grown by a local orchid nut and apparently they are up on their game. This one is an amazing color and the scent is delicate yet spicy. Below is what was on the tag...i'm not sure it's complete.
    Blc. Pokai Tangerine 'Loa' Hcc X C. Chocolate Drop 'AM/AOS'

    Thanx for looking...

    Fantastic color -- kind of reminds me of Hawaiian Punch. The greenhouse sounds cool too--orchids on consignment.

    Very nice.
    It looks like it got all its foliage/stem genes from the Chocolate Drop. That plant is TALL!
