Miltonia spectablis var. moreliana is by far my preferred of the forms of this species. Love the colour on this and the subtle veining on the lip adds even more interest. Heard the fragrance described as being like black licorice at Orchid Web - which normally wouldn't get me too excited but it fits with the colour.

Have had good success recently with our Miltonia/Miltoniopsis intergenic so it's another good one where I have a good grasp of the required care and am fairly certain I can keep it happy.
