TOF3398 Cattleya warscewiczii var. semi-alba coerulea 'Natural World' x self. Colombia.. C. warscewiczii is my favorite cattleya species and here is a very rare and select variety for aficionados. Beautiful large flowers display perfectly. The petals are white and the gorgeous lip is a strong blue-purple. (And for those who wonder, I made up the term semi-alba coerulea myself to describe this unique variety). "Warscewicz discovered the species around 1848 in the province of Medellin, but his plants were lost in a shipping accident. Reichenbach had to publish his description of the new species from the pressed herbarium specimens that did arrive" (Withner, 1988) | ||||
