    Oooh pretty! Thanks for sharing! I have a Slc. Jungle Beau 'Lea' that hasn't grown very much since I bought it at a show 6 months ago. What conditions do you provide for yours? How big does the plant need to get before it will bloom? Thanks!

    I don't know much about catts, but what are the parents? Is walkeriana involved at all? I looked online first but couldn't find anything quickly...

    Is this really Slc.? I don't see any Sophronitis, and have never seen blue hybrid of Sophronitis. I looked up with the RHS serahc engine, and there is nothing under Blue Hawaii for a cattleya type.
