Default Stanhopea reichenbachiana

Fascinating stanhopea species that produces wintergreen-fragrant blooms on a relatively compact plant. This one doesn't have horns, so perhaps it might be considered one of the more "primitive" species in the genus.

This is my favorite Stanhopea! Its the only Stan I took with me from Hawaii to Texas, though it has yet to bloom for me here.

I love how young these one are when they start blooming and yours has a really nice, porcelain white. Good work!

Nice photo. Did you get this plant from TOF? They have a habit of incorrectly identifyng stanhopeas.
This Stan. is candida not reichenbachiana. It's still a great looking flower though.

I was wondering if you were going to chip in on this because I wasn't sure if it was labeled incorrectly or just variability in the plant. I know I've had to change at least one name tag from TOF on my Stans after you've chimed in!

Oh wow, this isn't reichenbachiana? Thanks for the correction. It came from Marlow's Orchids (NY), not TOF (HI).
