Durban Rose (Lc. José Dias Castro x Slc. Circle of Life) has attractive uniform pink-lavender flowers with exceptionally wide petals, complemented by a nice lip. Spirit Flare (Slc. Circle Spirit x Lc. José Dias Castro) has beautifully-shaped purple flowers with nice purple flaring on the petals and a classic full lip shape. Here we have a new style of breeding for SVO. This cross will produce flower shapes that will look just like their larger cousins, those large standard-sized plants with 7” corsage-style flowers. This new cross will reduce plant size to 8-10” tall and produce large 5” purple flowers of excellent shape. If you admire classic Cattleyas, here they are in a smaller package!
