Hi Veekay

C. Gigas is also known as C. Warscewizii. Still don't know how to pronounce it!! It's has one of the biggest cattleya flowers. I have tried to buy one in Sydney/Aust. but so far no luck.

It looks great....and plant looks healthy,

Cheers

John

Hi Veekay

Nice plant anyway....and hope you enjoyed the speel on C. Warscewizii. At least you can mark it correctly now.

Cheers
