Rhyncolaeliocattleya Lisa Taylor Gallis ‘Nora’ AM/AOS (4.5” pot blooming size)

New! This awarded, compact growing, orchid has it all, good fragrance, delightful colors and the ability to bloom twice per year. The full shaped flowers are in clusters of 2 or three and about 3 inches across, with delicate sepals and petals in palest yellow shaded pink. There can be more pink in warm weather or less in very cool weather. The lip is always round and ruffles with bright yellow side lobes and rich red-purple mid lobe and throat. As you can see from our inset photo, with good care, this orchid can make a multi-lead specimen. Even when grown very bright, the foliage tends to stay a dark green. We repotted these in summer of 2022 into premium Kiwi bark and they should be good for a couple of years.
