Cattleya labiata ('Sherwood Forest' AM/AOS × 'Libra')

[My Green Pets]

First bloom seedling from Steve Christoffersen.
Flower did not open as much as it could, maybe just a first-bloom thing.
Seems to have a bit of pincelada going on.
Super sweet scent.

Anyone know the story of 'Sherwood Forest' ? Some growers have suggested it is not just labiata.

William, I also bought a seedling of this from Steve on eBay, but I haven't bloomed it yet. I would be quite pleased with such a result.

Lovely thing! That’s one huge lip.

Lovely, indeed...difficult to add anything meaningful as the two esteemed, and so much more knowledgeable, gentlemen above have put the praise so succinct!
