    Thumbs up Blc. Volcano BLUE "Volcano Queen"

    I am quite proud of this Blc. Volcano Blue "Volcano Queen" as I got it from Hawaii last November and it has well established itself here in Phuket... evidence is this first bloom! I had never seen a blue cattleya, so I couldn't resist the temptation (I got 2 plants, this one flowered withouth a sheath, the other plant now has a sheath with a bloom growing inside... If the colors get deeper I will add more photos.

    Cheers, Michael

    Must agree there, blues are very few and far between.

    Good to see one posted.
