Native Singaporean Orchid notes: Laeliocattleya Irene Holguin 'Brown Eyes'
Laeliocattleya Irene Holguin 'Brown Eyes' is a renowned orchid hybrid celebrated for its sweet fragrance and striking appearance, resulting from its parentage of Cattleya Astral Beauty and Cattleya J. A. Carbone. It thrives in intermediate to warm temperatures and requires medium to high light levels to bloom beautifully during spring and summer. Its medium lavender petals and sepals complement a distinctive lip that transitions from deep gold to reddish-purple, making it visually captivating. Propagated through mericlone, this orchid's fragrance inspires Oriental-themed perfume workshops, offering a luxurious and elegant aroma that encourages creativity in fragrance blending. However, crafting perfumes requires expertise and additional ingredients beyond the orchid's natural scent.
