Catlleya Percivaliana is one of the most characteristic Venezuelan
Cattleyas. Above you see two of them that have that “egg yellow” color
so prevalent in them. I find the lips of these plants fascinating, the
colors are so strong. So is the odor of these flowers, they stink, as
simple as that. Of teh two above, the one on the left is the better
flower, the petals don’t overlape, well formed. The one on the right
has ovelapping petals, short sepals, not a great example of its family.
But the color is, in my opinion, magnificent!
