Default Blc. Waianae Leopard 'Ching Hua' HCC/AOS

I saw one of these and fell in love, but couldn't handle the price tag at the time...
I found this one that was blooming size, but it sat for 2 years and just looked at me...Finally this year I was rewarded for my patience!

I purchased it off of eBay from Bardavo Orchids, but I would caution you, as everything that I've ever gotten from them has taken at least a year to bloom for me...

I love everything about this one! The colors are just amazing! I actually have this one and I got it from Bardavo too. Unfortunately I think I waited a little too long to repot and most of the roots were all dried up. There wasn't too much medium in the pot and I don't think I was watering it accordingly. Whoops! I'm nursing it back to health so hopefully some day far away it may bloom!
