Default Lc. Bethune 'Indigo' Am/Aos

This beautiful deep purple Cattleya is blooming out in our greenhouse. Lc. Bethune 'Indigo' is a hybrid of Lc. Mattie Shave x Lc. Elizabeth Off, registered by Carter & Holmes in 1979. The rich dark purple is nearly impossible to capture correctly but this comes pretty close. Five-inch heavy flowers with a nice fragrance on a compact plant.
