Oeceoclades pulchra x roseovariegata

[mrhappyrotter]

I didn't find a hybrid registration for this, so presumed to be unnamed.

This came from Louisiana Orchid Connection several years ago, and it's the first time this has bloomed. I don't have any experience with the genus, but this one seems to be a bit lacking overall. Given that there are so many Oceoclades with gorgeous mottled foliage, this one is a bit disappointing. Flowers are tiny, and I wasn't prepared for that. These are about the size of a ladybug or smaller, and in terms of size, they're close to something like a Tipularia discolor for those familiar. No scent on the flowers that I can tell.

If not striking it is quite interesting and unique. And you grew it to blooming, congratulations.
