Two very similar flowers, two different species.
C. skinneri 'Heidi Jacobs' and C. deckeri
The deckeri is the miniature one, smaller both in greenery and flower size.
I am super psyched about the deckeri bloom - it is the very first time it has bloomed in 6 years.

Both:

Beautiful! They're quite similar aren't they? I've been wanting to get a 'Heidi Jacobs'. It's a popular outdoor orchid here in south Florida. Yours are very nice. Good growing.

Of course, the other difference between deckeri and skinneri is that deckeri is a fall bloomer, and skinneri normally blooms in the spring.

yeah, I grow the skinneri under lights so it blooms when it feels like it - it has no idea what season it is
