Cattleya nobilior coerulea #2

[smweaver]

It's a very impressive show, Steve. I like the rather wild shape of the blooms, since it looks a little like it just came from the Brazilian rainforest. I hope that comes across as the compliment that it's meant to be. No offense is intended to your sensibilities as an AOS judge, but I am not a big fan of a lot of line-bred species that tend to have "perfected" shapes compared to their wild brethren. It's quite an amazing plant you have there. Congratulations on the lovely blooms.
