Odontonia Memoria Martin Orenstein 'Lulu' HCC/AOS
This fantastic clone was awarded the prestigous Highly Commended Certificate by the American Orchid Society (Division). It's the only awarded orchid I have, and I'm very proud of it. My Miltoniopsis perished in the heat of July; Odontonias are a little more tolerant of culture inefficiencies such as high temperatures and this one did fine. Odontonia is (Odontoglossum x Miltonia) and as you can see, the flowers resemble those of Miltoniopsis but are smaller with a less-significant-but-still-showy lip. This particular clone is quite floriferous and easy to bloom.
