Description

This is a division of Rlc. (Bc.) Willis Harrington (Margarite Fournier x c. Trimos). It was registered by S.Low in 1937. It came from Canaima Orchids.I believe it originated at Lines Orchids in the states. A lot of special orchids were sent to American orchid nurseries during world War 2 to safe guard from bombings. It just tested clean of virus. This is a nice, shapely pink cattleya. Flowers are 7 inches or more across! It blooms in March normally. It takes typical cattleya culture. Easy to grow and bloom. It was just re-potted so not established yet. The flower pictures are of this plant.. the plant pictures are what you are bidding on. It is the ONLY piece I have to sell.
