Cattleya warneri 'MR'
 

Fine example of this species. The color is actually a bit darker than it appears in the photo. The form is very good for this species. And the perfume... tutti-frutti!
In time, 'MR' is not after Mauro Rosim, but after M R, my wife:) .

It really is gorgeous and I'm sure your wife was honored by it.

What a wonderful colour! Your wife must be very proud. Does she share your orchid hobby with you?

:)

No, Shirley! She likes orchids, but only in the living room!:lol:

Another beauty, Mauro, I love that throat....it kinda jumps out at you on that soft pink flower. Bravo!

:clap: :clap: OUTSTANDING :clap: :clap:

Super beautiful, great shape and colors :drool:

About as perfect as an orchid can be, I think.

That's stunning, Mauro! And the plant looks nice and compact (for a cattleya). One more species to add to my wish list...

Very nice form! MR could stand for Marital Reward! ;)

That's good, Royal, that's good!!:D
