100mm Cattleya Orchid Hybrid SVO10155 (Blc. Haadyai Delight 'Bangprom Gold' AM/AOS x Pot. Little Toshie 'Gold Country' AM/AOS)
Hybrid seedling plant in a 100mm pot. Near flowering size. Cross made by Fred Clarke, Sunset Valley Orchids, USA. Picture shows the parent of this cross. The following description was written by Fred and details the expectation of this hybrid.
Haadyai Delight (Blc. Angkinantana x Blc. Destiny) is new to our breeding program. It has made a significant contribution to Cattleya breeding in Thailand and seems worth of attention. After studying its offspring, this parent seems dominant for big broad lips and wide petals. Our first cross using Haadyai Delight is with Pot. Little Toshie (Sc. Beaufort x Blc. Toshie Aoki). The cultivar 'Gold Country' is the best of the grex. It blooms with 2-3 superb, flat, bright yellow flowers and dark red lips. If our read on this new parent (to us) is correct, this cross has amazing potential! We are expecting compact plants with large, well-formed yellow flowers and big red lips.
