Cattleya walkeriana 'Khairul Bariah'
|
I first posted about this orchid last year on December 2nd. Arne bought this plant in 2017 and it has been doing well and produced three flowers last year. This year, our Cattleya walkeriana 'Khairul Bariah' produced three flower buds. Unfortunately, one of the buds aborted at an early stage, and wasn't able to mature. We do move our orchids around in order to water them and space is quite tight indoors. The particular clone has wonderful flowers, both the color and shape are close to perfect.

| A) Flowering in early December this year. The second bud still closed. |
Despite the lost of the third flower bud, the flowers of this Brazilian native, are impressively large and symmetrical in form. Hopefully this characteristic will persist and Arne can take it for judging at the National Capital Judging Center in Washington, DC one day.

| B) Both flowers fully opened on Dec 8, 2019. |

| C) A close up of the individual flower. |

| D) A quick photo session on the back deck on December 8th, 2019. |
Until my next post, have a great week everyone!
