    First time this young plant flower! The shape is not that good I think but I will see if next year bring something better.

    C. mossiae was discovered in 1836 and was first flowered in Europe By a Mrs. Moss from who Prof. Hooker named it after.

    Thanks for posting. I'm trying more Cattleya species, but haven't bloomed this species yet.
