C. warscewicii v. coerulea

Just opening but still pretty nice. Said to (La Floresta x Eight semi Alba). I am a big fan of the minis but there is nothing quite elegant as an old classic.

Nice blooming Tom. Splendid classic.

In these pics, it looks almost type coloration. Is it more coerulea in sunlight?

I believe it is “bluer“ than the photo but I’ll look again tomorrow.

..........I have the same thoughts as Leslie but would go farer and I would say.....by all photos I have seen so far....sorry to say this...... this is a normal coloured form and no f. coerulea.

I agree the big pouty catts always stop me in my tracks.

Well as usual Leslie (and Rudolf) are correct. I moved it to various light situations (bright to shade) and no matter how hard I tried there is more “pinkish“ tone than blue.

It is a real gift to have such fine eyes with big brains in this group. The AOS has the SITF (Species Identification Task Force) but we have Dr. Leslie and others.
THANK YOU

Beautiful color! I don't see much coerulea, but it still has great color.
