    Default Both lovely!

    They are both winners in my book. I have such a soft spot for floof--the gaudier the better (in my eyes).

    The don't call cattleyas the "Queen of Orchids" for nothin'.

    I went shopping today and found a C. Dupreana corulea 'Kodama' and a Blc. Laddawan Beauty.

    Clint is right on about floofiness! Why bother with the hybrid big catts unless you love the floof! Nice aquisitions... both of you.

    Lovely, if I was going to have to choose one, I would go for the Tokyo Magic - it looks good enough to eat
