Default Cattleya mossiae var. caerulea

Here's another example of this fantastic Venezuelan Cattleya. The citrine yellow, 'blue' and white combo makes this lip very attractive. This year, quick temperatures changes have negatively been affecting several of my flowers. It's been like a roller coaster; sometimes, dramatic temperature droppings, like from 79ºF down to 57ºF can occur in just a few hours!). In this case, the sepals have been weakened by one of those changes, so the flowers are not at their best. Hope you like it!

Is there any interest in a maturing seed pod of a C. mossiae X self? Free of course.
Flasking & germinating are well beyond my capabilities.
