Default Slc Mango Spice x Sl Free Spirit

Now called:

Rhyncattleanthe Mango Spirit (Cattleya Mango Spice x Rhyncattleanthe Free Spirit)

These two plants came out of the same flask, I bought 10 of them and these are the first two I have to flower. I have thrown out 3 because they just didn't grow.

Oooh, both nice but quite different looking. I like the more intense colour of the second, but the first has a really nice lip.

The second one with colour and shape is definitely the better flower and hopefully next year it will show better form on the lip.

Thanks!

Thumbs up

Bolero, how long have you had these from flask to blooming?

I would like to try my hand at growing from a flask.

3 years it has been. If I had better conditions in the beginning I think it would have been a little faster.
