Brassavola Little Star
Hi,
I'm new in this forum.
I have this plant named Little Star on label attached. I guess it might be Brassavola Little Star. Am I right? I found the specimen while looking around wasn't identically with mine.
Any suggest welcome

It looks like a Brassavola, but not Little Stars. My Little Stars is all white. Maybe it's Little Stars crossed with something else. I like the flower on this one. Nice job!

According to the Royal Horticulture Society registered hybrids -
There is Brassovola Little Stars
and
there is Brassocattleya Little Star.
There is also Guarisophleya Little Star
and there is Cattleya Muse's Little Star.

Dear Friends,
Thank you for your comment.
For me, the flower looks like Brassocattleya Little Star x Maikia "Hawaii" in yellow form. But, it only has single leave. Will keep searching  |

I agree. Whatever it is, it's a cool looking flower. |

I agree; Ours is a Maikia cross as well, and the blooms are a beautiful greenish white.....unfortunately we are having some problems with the leaves....its mounted and they are shriveling......thoughts on this cross? Best media, etc?? |

If its mounted you can (should) water it ever single day, especially this time of year. They also require a lot of light as well. |
