Multi-floral Cattleyas


Cattleya (Chloe x Mrs. Mahler) x Fred Thompkins. Sure would be nice if people named their hybrids so you didn't have these long names! It would be kind of like calling your child (Bob X Susan) X William instead of Frank or Eileen. Of course, everything costs something. Either way, these are fragrant beauties that are covered with raspberry speckling on huge plants with huges sprays of flowers. An amazing plant if you have the space.

Your blog is very educational if someone likes orchids, a friend of mine, who likes orchids, had forced me to pour her orchids during their vacation, they have all survived, even the silk orchids I of course had also poured.
