Made this photo today. The flowers will turn into a deep warm red colour in a few days.

It will be neat to see it after the color change - it's quite a contrast now with the soft sepals and petals and the bright 'look at me' lip!

That's bordering on garish, to me. Not sure I like the color combination, but then that's just me!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

I'm not fussy on the big floofy hybrids (I'm an admitted species snob ) but that one has nice colour. Great growing!

The lip is amazing, quite a contrast to the petals and sepals.

Do you have an updated photo? I'd love to see the colour change.

The colour has NOT been changed at all. I thought it should be much deeper red, but no way.
It is still the same!!
