Cattleya lueddemanniana s/a Cerro Verde

[dodidoki]

Interesting taxon, same as famous mossiae Willowbrook. It is not a real sp., probably Carmen, but one of my fav. cattts. Very interesting the result of selfing....in the 2nd pic you can see a plant from selfed individuals...If CV is hybrid, theoretically Carmen, some individual must looks like gigas, another like lueddemanniana, others like CV....but this one looks very different in 2nd pic....
CV mother plant
One individual from self cross

Any thought?

I’d expect quite a range of flower colours and shapes given the parents. I’m not surprised at this one. It would be very interesting to see maybe 25 or 50 of these selfings flowering. You could say more about cerro verde then.
