    A Trio Surprise!!! A Skinneri party, late Percivaliana and a Ménage de Tres Jenmanii

    I closed my eyes and this approx 10 buds appeared on this skinneri… I should sleep more lol. As if that wasn’t enough, the late to the party season flowers of the percivaliana peloric appeared out of nowhere. Then deep at the back of the shelve I saw these 3 flowers of the jenmanii...

    Cattleya walkeriana pelorica ‘Cat’s Eye’

    I finally bloomed a walkeriana (first time ever) …. using Fred Allen’s clay pellets in shallow clay pot method (Thanks Fred!). It’s the peloric version with petals that resemble the lip. The pattern is so hypnotic. Only one flower as plant is still establishing and need to get stronger...

    Cattleya percivaliana peloric in Bud!!!

    I decided to move my percivaliana peloric to another location and it triggered a new growth. This was out of season and so I thought the growth would be sheathless. But it surprised me with a sheath and buds right after! Not sure if this is normal but it’s going to bloom 6 months after it’s...

    Cattleya trianae pelorica

    Another of my pelorics just opened. A division from Brazil. Comes from F3 peloric line breeding. Flowers are soft and velvety, with contrasting light pink sepals against the dark lavender petals and lips. Reminds me of the Empress of Mercury hybrids from way back. Also love the thin margin...

    Cattleya trianae pelorica trilabelo

    One of my best trianaes just opened. Probably the best peloric in the world with overlapping petals mimicking the lip. Stunning deep lavender and gold color 'eyes' with velvety texture. Huge at 15.5 cm. A line bred from the original trianae peloric 'Lia' found in the jungle that sold for $25K...

    Cuppy (peloric?) Brachypetalum hybrid

    Paph. Payakka Kodkod (concolor x thaianum) purchased in-bud this past summer (July 2020): Same plant, bloomed again January 2021 while carrying a seedpod: Thoughts? When it was blooming the second time around the petals were so cuppy that they needed a little nudge to allow the flower to...

    Cattleya trianae fm. pelorica

    I was pleasantly surprised when these flowers opened with such wild colour patterns. The petals mimicked the lip (thus the peloric variety), making the yellow flares look like eyes. And to think it came from a line breeding of the rare trianae peloric ‘Lia’ (was sold for USD$20,000 when it was...
