Inspired by Wes’ submission of his Paphiopedilum, Karla decided to share with us her Blc. Color Magic ‘Mendenhall’ AM/AOS. She grows this big “floofy” Cattleya in the west-facing bay window in her dining room.
Karla tells us:
The blooms on this orchid are so perfect and pretty, they almost don’t look real.
The sun peeked through the clouds last evening, so I set the orchid outside in my annual bed to get a few pictures in the good light.
Karla’s master gardener’s touch and her artist’s eye come together nicely in that last photo, don’t they? I really want to know if that beautiful Cattleya is fragrant, but I bet it was hard to tell next to that well-grown scented geranium! Thank you for sharing, Karla!
