Blc Tainan Gold 'Canary' AM/AOS
Award-Winning Golden Brilliance with Dramatic Red Accents
Blc. Tainan Gold 'Canary' AM/AOS is a stunning award-winning Cattleya hybrid that delivers spectacular 4"-5" blooms combining radiant yellow petals with a bold red lip. This exceptional cultivar has earned the prestigious Award of Merit from the American Orchid Society—recognition reserved for orchids that demonstrate superior quality, form, and color. When 'Canary' blooms, it's an event worth celebrating.
Twice-Yearly Blooming Performance
One of the most rewarding aspects of Tainan Gold 'Canary' is its generous blooming schedule. Unlike many Cattleyas that flower once annually, this hybrid typically produces two spectacular displays each year—one in early spring and another in early fall. This means you'll enjoy those gorgeous yellow and red blooms twice as often, making 'Canary' a high-value addition to any collection.
Classic Cattleya Beauty
The color combination in 'Canary' is both classic and striking—bright, cheerful yellow petals that radiate warmth and energy, contrasted beautifully by a vibrant red lip that draws the eye and adds dramatic flair. The 4"-5" flower size ensures these blooms command attention without overwhelming the plant, creating a perfectly balanced presentation that showcases the best of modern Cattleya breeding.
Award of Merit Excellence
The AM/AOS designation signifies that 'Canary' has been evaluated by expert judges and scored between 80-89 points out of 100—a mark of exceptional quality that places this cultivar among the top tier of Cattleya hybrids. This is a proven performer with documented excellence, not just a pretty flower.
