    Default Cattleya Mini Purple 'Expo 84'

    A friend gave me this plant a couple of years ago. 1st time I've flowered it. One of the best Mini Purples I've ever seen.

    I agree, I haven't seen any Mini Purple of that caliber before either.

    You say" One of the best Mini Purples I've ever seen." me too, and it is a hybrid I really like, and my only regret is that it has such a prosaic name.
