Karma Forester

Welcome! My name is Karma. I live in Gothenburg Sweden and I am a certified orchidophile with a penchant for orchids of the Pleurothallid Alliance, but we don’t have an exclusive relationship...

I am also the editor for the Swedish Orchid Society magazine "Orkidéer". If you would like to contribute, or know of any interesting orchid stories or people - please send them my way!

Thanks for stopping by!

Cattleya forbesii

Cattleya forbesiiI this is one of the nicer looking Cattleyas there are. The shape and subtle coloring really appeals to me. It is a cool to warm growing medium sized Cattleya with nice long-lived, fragrant, waxy flowers. My clone does not have a very strong scent, but you can definitely smell it in the early morning when the sun warms it up.

I bought this orchid earlier this summer from Orchidéhuset in Stockholm. It came with three buds already so I cannot take credit for these lovely flowers, but they are defilitely brightening up my (rainy) summer vacation!!
