    Here is the last group that's blooming now, some flowers are clearly past their prime and I admit I suck as a photographer... so there... no whining or complaining about pictures.:poke:

    C. Luddemanniana

    C. maxima (supposed to be a coeurlia x coerulescens and it came out tipo)

    C. schroderae, from H&R, very nice pink flower. I should have taken a pic 2 weeks ago

    C. Violacea , my old reliable

    C. Amethystoglossa, long lasting flower and has a whitish cream background that I really like

    :)

    I'll have to look for a violacea.

    Ben You make it hard for me not to like Cattleyas. That violacea just went to the lust list. Now I have to go check on my C. amethystoglossa and see if it's in bloom.

    Canaima orchids has clones of Muse FCC/AOS, Francisco Miranda has some good seedlings for very good prices.
