Rare Cattleya labiata v. coerulea ‘Blue Lip’

Description: Here is 6-bulb division of the beautiful Cattleya labiata v. coerulea ‘Blue Lip’. The plant just finished blooming having had two large flowers of the rare coloration with well-formed light lavender segments. The lip was the predominant feature of the flower: its solid dark ‘blue’ coloration, subtle yellow throat and raffled lavender edges were just spectacular. Fragrant. The plant stands 13” tall and has a 15-inch root system. It grows in a 4-inch plastic basket. All pictures are mine and of the exact plant you will receive. Please, note that the plant is no longer in bloom. Any unused shipping cost will be returned to the buyer. Please read before bidding and buying: I am an orchid enthusiast and an accredited American Orchid Society judge with over 14 years of growing experience and more than 60 AOS flower quality and culture awards to the date. My offerings include rare, unique and awarded divisions as well as select seedlings. All the plants offered here are hand-picked for their quality. I grow outdoors, which means strong, vigorous and disease- and pest-resistant plants with healthy blooms. While the outdoor culture makes them well predisposed for transitioning to any growing conditions, be aware that the plants may show some imperfections. Plants get regularly treated for pests and diseases. I ship on Monday only, following the payment. For auctions ending between Friday and Sunday, the paid plants will be shipped on Monday. Please understand that once the shipment is delivered to the carrier (USPS, UPS or Fedex), I cannot be responsible for what happens to it. While the pictures are taken at the time of listing, it is safe to assume that the flowers will be finished blooming by the time of shipping. Therefore, there is no guarantee that the flowers will be still open at the delivery. In case of inclement weather, I will postpone the shipment. Please advise. To stimulate and protect the sharing and growing flow, there are no returns allowed. Bidders from Hawaii: Ask for the shipping estimate, as it will likely be higher than the one in the listing. Feel free to ask any questions before the auction ends. Your prompt payments are most welcome. Happy Bidding!
