was a little tired. I can accept this flower form. The falls have
a satiny sheen. It'll do okay as a breeder. -- Griff

nicely. The lighting isn't too great for photos, but I'm attaching
a couple. It's a deep purple self, with beard the same color, as I
expected. 6 buds, maybe 7, and nice height (30") and branching.
The flower form, however, is a little dated. I guess that may be
from a hidden gene in the parent whose identity was lost, since the
pod parent has nice broad, semi-flared falls and usually produces
similarly-shaped progeny. I'll have to see what can be done with
further breeding. -- Griff
