    Default Sophronitis tenebrosa 'Bronze Beauty' AM/AOS x self

    Got this one as a bag baby three years ago. I'm glad it finally decided to bloom. One of the bloom has mechanical damage. They are about 6" in diameter.

    That's a great job blooming a bag baby in 3 years.

    I have Bl Golden Glory which is the cross between Richard Mueller and tenebrosa, I guess I will start to look for one tenebrosa because I really like the lip.

    Clint, you find the coolest orchids in those bag baby collections. All I find around here are the same o' - same old things. Love the colors.

    Cheers,

    this bothered me earlier and came back to it. I am wondering about the color breaks in the petals. Sometimes that can indicate a virus
