Orchid Laeliocatonia Peggy San `Cynosure`

Abstract

A new and distinct variety of orchid, more particularly a Laeliocatonia hybrid plant having flowers of unique and spectacular coloring with heads of flowers erectly carried on strong sprays. The new variety is distinct from syblings of its grex by its outstanding vigorous plant structure as well as extreme freedom and frequency of bloom. A primary note with this cultivar is its compactness of growth and dramatic distinction from syblings of the grex as well as superiority over others of the type.
