Default Catsm.Francis Nelson X denticulatum X tigrinum
Hi to all,
This is an old image of the hybrid ,it is 3 years old from Brasil .It is quite expensive for the size plant I got from the vendor.It is a very difficulty hybrid to grow.

Presently the plant is in bloom,as it is raining like hell here for two days,would photograph later to day.

That is absolutely beautiful, veekay! I love catasetums but they never seem to do well for me so I've kind of given up.

Vrey nice, veekay. What makes this one so difficult to grow? I'd like to try one, maybe.

I know that denticulatum is VERY difficult for me to grow. You difficulty could be from that part of the hybrid. The flower looks cool though.
