Lc. Dinard 'Blue Heaven'
I can't believe I haven't been on the forum since July! Things have been super busy, but I really look forward to catching up.
This is Lc. Dinard 'Blue Heaven'. I can't remember where I got this plant, but I've had it for at least 4 years. Last year was the first flowering and I was so pleased. From what I've read, Dinard won "Best Scent" back in the late nineties at the World Orchid Conference. Last year when the first flower opened, I was so dissapointed because it had no scent. It took a week for it to kick in. Now, I can't imagine having more than one plant in my greenhouse--it really packs a punch in a small space.
This photo is from last year since the pics I took this time around didn't turn out well. This photo shows 3 flowers on 2 sheaths. This time around, Dinard has 4 sheaths and 2 flowers are open so far.
(Does anyone else "name" their orchids? I do and I just call this one "Dinard".)
