    Default (Lc. Drumbeat x Lc. Bonanza Queen) "Spring" (KOG 2033)

    I have had this cattleya for over a year and it has finally bloomed for me for the first time. I like the color and it has a nice fragrance. My vote is still out on the substance. It has been in bloom for a week.

    I can't imagine the size and fragrance as I never came across anything like it so far, but it surely is a stunner.

    Thanks from sharing a beautiful image of Cattelya Orchid. Similar to “Gujrj” I am unable to imagine size and fragrance of orchid.

    This is a beautiful lavender cattleya but I wonder about the parentage. I own both Lc. Drumbeat and Lc. Bonanza Queen and they both have large open lips. It seems strange that an offspring of these two would have a tubular shaped lip like that. The throat and lip on your orchid looks like it has some C. percivaliana in it. I know that genes from way back in an orchids ancestry can suddenly manifest themselves but I'm a little skeptical about this one. Never-the-less it's a very pretty orchid. Good growing.
