L. purpurata
 

It's the blooming season for the purpurata's and I have several in bloom in my collection. The one pictured below is one of my favorites. According to the label it is a cross of L. purpurata var. flammea 'Xint' and L. purpurata var. rosada 'Dark Hsinying'. It is a plant that I obtained from Orchid Center in Waianae a few years ago.

gorgeous!

Beautiful.

Beautiful display. You could have a collection of just purpurata given the variety in this species, plus they are just so easy to grow.

Outstanding in shape and colour and grown to perfection.

Wow! They are just lovely!

Fantastic.
