Large plant. A fine example of this lowland Venezuelan species, this plant is the result of a selfing of the cultivar 'Cursons' at Stewart Orchids. All segments deep, concolor sparkling violet-pink; dorsal sepal reflexed at distal tip, veins prominent; lateral petals very full, well held, attractively ruffled along edges, slightly reflexed at tips; lateral sepals moderately falcate, prominently veined; labellum full, quite exquisitely marked deep magenta on midlobe, two prominent golden eyes at opening of throat, edged in white, prominent pale yellow nerves radiating from throat across disc; substance good for the species; texture sparkling. A distinguishing feature of the species is the curious winged process on the tip of the column over the anther cap. This appendage is illustrated in the internal photograph of the labellum. This feature of column structure is unique among labiate cattleyas, with most other species having nothing more than a hook-like process over the anther cap. |
