This is the best flower it has ever produced...but it is still not what I had expected. The flower is skinny... all segments are quite small compared to the normal color form. I was seriously thinking about getting rid of it when I had to move things back inside this past fall...well, maybe I will keep it for another year. ***previous blooms were a lot worse than this.
I've told GuRu I would post mine...here it is:

Of course I'll keep mine ... even if there was only one reason to do so ... solely to tease Jens (Guldal) :D
 
Love that deep orange on the lip! Still deciding whether I want to give up some space for one…

The intensity of color in the lip is unusual to me. But I understand when you have to make choices.
