C. mossiae semi-alba pincelada

[NEslipper]

Originally purchased as a select seedling from Steven Christoffersen a couple of years ago. From the cross Llamarada x Valerio it has 2 flowers and 1 bud just opening up. From what I've seen of this cross it has been quite nice, and very consistent, so if you come across one - grab it! I love this flower, in my opinion it has the best of the mossiae charm with an intoxicating fragrance and those petals that fall forward. Not everything needs to be a flat, round dinner plate! Really nice substance as well, and nice dark pincelada markings. I just wish the dorsal had stayed upright, it was upright for almost a week, but then overnight curled a bit from the top, oh well, maybe on the next blooming it will behave.





Giving the dorsal an assist:

Reminds me of fireworks. Would love a piece.

the 'flares' really set it off. Lovely

Just stunning! Great pincelada markings

She looks really great ... even with the slightly backwards curled dorsal.
