Maypop- not sure if this is the kodama one but its just a chocolate drop, there alot of variations in them i think. I was alittle disapointed it wasnt very red but its a nice shiny dark pink colour.
Anyone else have a chocolate drop flower pic?
Sandnsea- im sure thats not helvetia but something with either Liemianum or primulinum in it or could be pinocchio. Heres my helvetia, its been flowering for about 6 months with 7 flowers so far....

Here is my C. Chocolate Drop 'Kodama'

heres crispin rosales opened with 2 big 15cm flowers, smells beautiful! Oh and my chocolate drop does smell nice now, similar to this one.

It does look like my liemianum!

Catt. Chocolate Drop 'Volcano Queen.'

Yes, Bree and Kathy, I agree it does look alot like your liemianum. The tag that came with it said Helvetia 2739 . Could the 2739 mean something?Like a cross or something? Or maybe just the wrong tag........ Glad to have all you experts to ID...

Lovely ursula thats what i think of as a chocolate drop. Wow boojum thats beautiful but i didnt think chocolate drop was frilly, is it waxy?. Do you know anything about this cross?

Yes, it's waxy. I assume Kodama and Volcano Queen are siblings. It's a C. gutatta and G aurantiaca cross.

I googled away on that Paph and came up with a Helvetia with 2739...not sure if it is it, but interesting.
Mine looks more like 2902.... which has primulinum heritage, like you suggested, Bree.

Beautiful, Bree!

Cattleya Chocolate Drop from Sept 2009, it is just coming into sheath again.

So waxy!

So chocolatey! This is the one I have from a seedling rescue two years ago. May it live long and prosper. I'm expecting blooms by next year or else!

Hopefully it will hear you and comply! I know I would if I heard you say that about me!!
