    Thanks for your query. I have about eight hundred cattleyas and about fifty Australian Dendrobiums ( mostly all D. bigibbum in natural and compact forms ). Oh, and I have a couple of Oncidiums as well.
    The plant featured on the avatar is ( C. Bhimayithon x C Red Empress ) ' Burdekin '. Regards, Cattmad.

    Is Burdekin a nursery? I know it is a river

    I suspect ( C. Bhimayithon x C Red Empress ) ' Burdekin ' can not be found here.

    You are quite right Burdekin is a river in north Queensland. There is a gentlemen who lives in a town called Ayr on the river , he was a hybridist ( now retired ) who bred some outstanding exhibition cattleyas, many have been awarded and been champions at shows. A lot of his plants bear the name Burdekin in some form. I buy plants on parentage and knowing his stock I purchased when they were available a few years ago. You can see from some I have illustrated I have been well rewarded. I would doubt any would be available in your country. Cattmad.

    I see that, although there are many pics of Blc Eagle Eye, it was actually registered as Blc Tadia Eagle Eye
