    Look at the lip on this bloom, the other lead had boring normal flowers. Is this a freak or what? IMG_2705.jpg IMG_2704.jpg IMG_2704.jpg

    Holy cow! Is it peloric or is that all one lip? Are there 2 sets of sepals/petals?

    I have an itty bitty seedling of this one... I can't wait for it to grow up and bloom now!

    Very beautiful formation. Possibly from more growth auxins in the lip. If this repeats in next flowering, you may have a new mutation of the mericlone!
