Default Blc. Volcano Blue 'Volcano Queen'






This is one of the few hybrids I have decided to actually keep over the years. This is the most blue orchid I have ever seen and it smells great. The tree above where the plant grows was casting a bit of a shadow, so these are not by best pics, but you guys will get the idea. Enjoy!

Fantastic color that one certainly has, Steve. Do you know what's in its background? Is it safe to assume, based on the new (and hideous) name "Rhyncattleanthe," that there's a digbyana or glauca ancestor somehwere? How big is the plant?

Good to know! I think I will let the name stew for a while to see if it sticks before I change the label!

P.S. The name may have changed already because my OrchidWiz calls this one Thwaitesara.
