    Default C. Waianea Leopard "Ching Hua" x C. Landate 'Charm"

    First time bloom for this plant for me. An interesting combination of colors, and an extremely heavy, waxy texture. The fragrance is quite delightful and very strong when in sunlight. Background color has more of a green tone to it than appears in the photo.

    The very distinct difference in the lip color and petal spotting is striking. I like it!

    Diane, I love your Leopard! Just curious, did it open green and then change to that nice gold color? I have a Waianae Leopard cross that just opened this morning, and it is unexpectedly green! (Maybe it will evolve?)
