C. labiata 'Oberlin' x self

This is a first bloom for this seedling and I an very happy with the result. I posted about this plant in December of last year. At the time it was not as happy a plant. I am looking forward to next year when the plant is stronger and the blooms are bigger.

I have not been able to find a picture of 'Oberlin' on the internet, so I am not sure how far off the boom is from the parent. That said I am really happy with the lip.

Gone to long....

I apologies for my long hiatus. In the last 4 months we have moved to another part of Virginia, been busy with a new house, and I have started a new job. That said, the blog and my plants have suffered for it. There is good news though; I have started construction on a greenhouse to make it up to my plants. More plant pictures and greenhouse pictures to follow. Stay tuned folks, if you are still out there.
