Slc. Precious Katie (awarded)
Of course by the time I got the plant back from the show, it was a bit damaged... Slc. Precious Katie 'Littlefrog Dragonblood' AM/AOS
My buddy who took it to the show for me (I hadn't seen it bloom at this point) told me that "when you look up 'red' in the dictionary, there is a picture of this flower". Perhaps there should be.

Wow, love the contrast of the yellow in the lip. Red indeed!

Nice flower!
I found this cross to be a bit ungainly in it's growth habit, but some of the flowers were very nice.

That is red. And the contrast between the yellow and red is blazingly beautiful! If that doesn't say, hey pollinators, come and get it, I don't know what does!

If I ever divide it. In order to mericlone it, I'd need to buy at least 1000 plants. I'd be lucky if I sold 1000 plants in a year, much less all of the same kind. I can't find a lab that will do a run of less than 1000.

Come on Rob....that would only be less than one for each OB member. Surely we could sell 1000 here, I would be good for 5! Any other takers out there? 995 to go!
