Cattleya Brabantiae

[nikv]

Hello,

This is a first-bloom seedling of Cattleya Brabantiae. It has two flowers with a NS of 4-1/4 inches. The cross is Cattleya loddigesii var. coerulea x Cattleya aclandiae var. coerulea. I never quite know what to think of coerulea-type flowers. Looks more plum-colored to me. I like it very much!

And the second flower:

And a whole-plant photo:

I've always loved this hybrid. I'm sure I'll buy one, one of these days.
