Hybrid seedling plant in a 50mm tube. 

With the high flower quality, large blooms and ease of growing, Mareeba Tiger (C. leopoldii x C. schilleriana) has been a great hybrid.  Here we have ‘back’ crossed with ‘ C. schilleriana ‘Afri’, a very large flower. This will reduce the plant height of Mareeba Tiger while maintaining the flower size.  These will be compact plants with 4-6 big, fragrant flowers in early summer.   

Imported Seedling from Sunset Valley Orchids, USA. Picture shows the parent of this cross. The above description was written by Fred Clarke and details the expectation of this hybrid.
