This is L. purpurata 'Mood Indigo' x C.
(intermedia var aquinii coerulea x amethystoglossa). It is a hybrid
created many years ago at Stewart Orchids, a company which had been in
business for 99 years making award winning Cattleya hybrids. We have
raised this from infancy to this wonderful bloom. We are offering it
for sale for the first time. This is the best of the pictures taken of
this stunning orchid, but the real bloom is much better.
This orchid is $150.00
