Love the name by the way, so fitting.
In regards to the link that you posted, yes the cross is very variable, but with the influence of the saccatum and fimbriatum in it's backround, the green progeny from this grex can't really be called alba, can they. I would think that more appropriately they would be called a green varient.
It reminds me of my Catasetum Louise Clarke (Catasetum Donna Wise X Catasetum Susan Fuchs), when I first saw the cross, I fell in love with it. I bought two seedlings, the first one bloomed out just as dark as could be and the second one came out all green. Since that time I have many more from the same grex and they have run the gambit of color combos.
Your thoughts?
