And here is 'Grapefruit Pink', a clone with several CCMs dating back to the late 20th century 😆 I like the color and fragrance better on this one, but the flower shape and spacing is not great.

It's my favorite of all the Cycnoches I've bloomed so far!

One more photo of the whole plant in the tent. The flowers are huge.

I will admit i messaged Gerardo Castiglione, the Venezuelan Cattleya grower whose opinion i regard highly, about whether this plant deserved the 90 points. His response was 'Without a doubt. Very good', and so with his testimony along with the judging team's expertise, I dare not contest it. I...

Lovely and excited to see my clone bloom one of these days.

Thank you Leslie. I would have liked to have seen all those other rexes too.

Yep I would love to know how that earned an FCC.

My Thanksgiving meal

Both stunning.

Plants do look great! Drooling over your new mendelii alba...

I love zygos too, i had a Bright Imagination once, but couldn't keep it alive. I read that the grex Advance Australia was bred for warmth tolerance, but don't know about Jumpin' Jack.

Here, I white-balanced the photos. Do they look accurate?

Hmm...growing in a meat locker...very interesting. Love these and looking forward to the blooms.
