The Lc. Elegans (C. tigrina x L. purpurata) have impressive large flowers over 6” across, although only a few small spots are visible on ‘Deep Blue’ you know there are recessive spotted flower genes from the tigrina in the background. Leoloddiglossa 'SVO Speckled Blue’ has excellent shape and coerulea color, and it carries 20 or more well-presented flowers. The FCC is indicative of this fine quality. We know from our years of experience this type of cross will bring out spots in the progeny, we are expecting big 5” flowers or better with 6-9 blooms per inflorescence in coerulea and darker blue spots, slate blue lips on robust plants standing 16” tall, these will be impressive when mature. The reciprocal as SVO 9576 is also available, a unique opportunity to evaluate the differences between pod vs. pollen parents
