Cattleya Brabantiae?
Got this several years ago as a run-down, scrawny backbulb div from a
plant at the local conservatory where I repot. It has finally bloomed and I have been eagerly anticipating a lovely pink flower, like all the other brabantiaes I have seen or seen pics of. Imagine my extreme disappointment when this bronze-ish flower opened after the years of babying the plant and giving it precious space in the high-light area. However, the lip is outstanding (second pic). No fragrance I can detect as yet. Anyone know if brabantiae opens pale and 'pinks up' later? I'm beginning to think the original plant was mislabelled at the conservatory. |
