Colmanara Wildcat

Hybrid Unknown

 

There are many types of 'Wildcat' orchids.  They are a popular parent plants for hybridizers so new crosses are introduced every year.  The original tag for this one has long since disappeared so we have no idea what parents were used to create the hybrid.  This hybrid variety is unusual due to the amount of bright blood red in it's petals and sepals and pointed tips on each.  Reds are normally more diffused in 'Wildcats'.  Each orchid is approximately 5 inches from tip to tip.
