Cattleyas mysteriously appearing
 
In the picture below is a very pretty greenish yellow Cattleya hybrid Rlc Karen's Sunrise that I don't remember ever buying or owning. I got rid of most of my Catts over two years ago and only kept my species. Strange, things normally disappear from my greenhouse.

Beautiful!! Are you going to keep it anyway?
I wish that I had orchids would pop out of nowhere like that!

Just for this growing season so that I can use in a cross. Once the pod is ripe it will go to one of my friends here in Florida or to my Society Auction. I have a limited amount of space in my high light area so I have to be careful of what I put in that space.

Funny that this one snuck past you if space is so tight! Wish I lived in the US, I would have bought it from you.

If you lived in the States, I would have given it to you. It snuck into the area Where I grow my Strap leaf Paphs, I never saw the plant until the flower appeared.

Bud - It is highly fragrant. It smells very citrusy much like Aerides or Clowesia Grace Dunn. Very nice and refreshing.
