Episode 112 - Purple Cattleya: First Flower
The orchid starts flowering this morning.
Like the mother plant, the flower of this pot of orchid is also 3 petalled. The size of the flower is smaller, however. There are altogether 4 flower buds. The other 3 flowers will blossom in the next few days - photos of the full blossoming orchid will follow.
I am thinking of further divide this pot of cattleya into two. I will have 3 pots then!
I also plan to cross pollinate the purple cattleya with the white cattleya next year. It should be fun!
