Cattleya undine x gaskelliana

[L I Jane]

This is an old cross-not sure if it was ever named.If anyone knows I'd appreciate the name.This is the last big guy I own in cattleyas & I've had it since 1978-about 5"-6" flower. (When removing sheath early in the season I knocked off a couple of buds :sob:

Jane, it turns out her name is Brenda.


Undine = (intermedia x mossiae) Reg. 1906
(Undine x gaskelliana) = Cattleya Brenda Reg. 1912

Many Thanks, Sue!!!!! I know that it was an early attempt on breeding for blue.

It has a nice star shaped form to it!

Thank you so much --it helps not to be 'puter illiterate like me! ' The plant is probably older than you are! lol

I love Brenda! As well as my wife!

Thanks
