C. Quinquecolor

A primary hybrid between aclandiae and forbesii.  I got mine from Gold Country Orchids.  It consistently blooms (2 flowers) on all new growths.

Another C. purpurata striata

This is the result of an alba x sanguinea cross.  This plant is still doing weird things.  This is a bloom off an older pseudobulb with no sheath.

C. Callistoglossa

First blooming of this alba form of the primary hybrid between C. purpurata and C. warscewiczii.  From Cal-Orchid.  The plant is big.  Hopefully more flowers per blooming in the future, otherwise difficult to justify the space.

C. Canhamiana

C. purpurata x C. mossiae.  This is the Azure Sky clone.  A strong grower and reliable bloomer.
