C. forbesii x C. Triumphans

Cattleya Triumphans is a primary hybrid between C. dowiana and C. rex. It has large, gorgeous flowers with all of the glory of the uniquely striated dowiana lip. C. forbesii is a wonderful Brazilian compact bifoliate species with waxy light olive-colored flowers and a fabulously beautiful lip in it's own right. We are so excited to see the offspring of this hybrid!
