C. Sun Catcher ‘Octoberfest’

For your viewing pleasure.
This complex hybrid is one of Sea Gods’ (Raymond Burr) more colorful crosses. Parents are (C. Dubiosa x C. Edgard Van Belle). While the flower lacks good form I think lip color, contrast and floriferous habit make the plant worth the bench space.

The blur between the gold and magenta on the lip is cool

I love this!! The color, especially the lip color, is striking! Most people who see our flowers don’t know anything about form, so go with what’s beautiful…. This one is!!

The dorsal is looking very upright and the colors are eye catching.

Although dowiana is only 25% by strict parentage, the yellow really came through. Yellow is such a hard color to breed for and the lip is dramatic.

I love this! And I agree that the form suits it perfectly - if everything were flat and round, how boring things would be!

Happy colours.
