Encyclia Lorraine Smith x cordigera

Encyclia Lorraine Smith is a primary hybrid between Enc. tampensis x Enc. phoenicea that produces an abundance of chartreuse flowers overlaid with a rich mahogany color with a magenta lip bordered with white. The branched spikes covered in flowers are quite a show. Encyclia cordigera has fragrant flowers are a dark chocolate color and a large magenta lip. We love encyclias and can't wait to see the offspring from this hybrid. The flower picture is from one of the first-bloomed seedlings from this cross.
