I was fortunate as team captain to help award this stunning and huge flower get an FCC of 90 points at the Cali show here in Colombia.

At a massive size of 15.5 cm with four flowers on one inflorescence, it commanded presence!

The lineage is from Cashen’s x Mary Fennell, which is infamous for producing pinched lips and reflexed flowers. So this outstanding outcome was a stroke of good luck in the gene pool of what we had expected from this breeding line.

Perfect conformation in shape and colors.
