A plant that I purchased about a year ago. 2 spikes and 3 buds per spike. Not a bad shape but not sure what to expect really from kovachii x longifolium. Characteristics from both plants with pouch being fairly large and nice markings. Petals Ok on first flower but one not straightened out yet.

It is generally not quite what I expected from this cross. I would have thought it looks more like a giant sedenii, maybe with deeper colours.

I suppose it has good size, and I like the delicate colours, the spots on the lip and the spiralled petals are quite appealing too.
 
I really like this. Thanks for sharing.

Are you sure about the cross? It seems to me a Peruflora's Angel (richteri x kovachii).

The difference would be in the size of the plant. Peruflora's Angel is a small plant.
It also looks a lot like Saltimbanco... But I think that the shape of the leaves on the Incan Treasure is more like the kovachii parent (wider)..
We need a plant pic!!! :p
