Red Cattleya

[paphman]

Here is one from SVO breeding. Blooming for the second time.
When I get two or more flowers on it, it goes to judging. It
could be my first award...we will see.

Love it. Beautifully balanced flower.

That sure is red. Personally, I wouldn't change the name - straight to the point!

Potential award I think! Yes need minimum 2 flowers for judging.

What is the cross?

It is Rlc. Exotic Pink Sapphire - Rlc. [Pot.] Loud Nine x C. [Slc.] Pat Thrall

Is it a smaller flower?

 

[Carmella.carey]

It looks relatively large for an Slc. I'm not usually a huge fan of reds, yellows, greens and art shades, but I would love this one! Even better than Jewel Box.

I love Jewel Box but this flower blows it away both in form, size and color saturation.
