    Default BLC. Hawaiian Princess 'Jewel Box'

    This is one of the newest additions I got today whilst picking up my BLC. Mt Isa 'Deborah' as well - I did get one more but will wait until the flowers open out and then post it as well

    This one is called BLC. Hawaiian Princess 'Jewel Box' and very very fragrant too

    Wow, I really like that one. It has a nice full shape and I love all that yellow in the throat. I'm a big fan of fragrant cattleyas also. Congratulations, I think you have a good one there.

    Mauraec - I am not sure who the parent lineage would come from as I bought them off a gentleman myself

    But his greenhouses were unbelieveable they were huge and when I mean huge I am talking the size of a house huge - I reckon between his two big greenhouses and then his 2 smaller ones he would of had about 1500 orchids all up and his does alot of breeding too

    But he was the most loveliest person I have met so far within orchid groups and I certainly have kept his address and phone number for the future

    Nope - just looked it up in Orchidwiz, and although Hawaiian Wedding Song has similar ancestors, no direct correlation. Then again, Wedding Song has a different shape, so I should have seen that sooner. Oh well....
