In Spike! (7/9/24)

Primary hybrid (C. trianae x jenmanii) that will produce large blush ruffled blooms with a violet lip. Will be morning fragrant and is kind of floral and spicy. C. trianae is from Colombia and C. jenmanii is from Venezuela so growth conditions are pretty similar. Warm, bright. Should be slightly more compact than trianae (which gets to be around 2 feet tall). 

Photo is of C. Jentri 'Aileen' - color and shape may vary. Blooming size plant, will not arrive in bloom unless stated.
