I always love the contrast with a beautiful white. Reminds me of a Mother's Day Corsage.......would be a delight for any mother.

That's a very good purpurata, Pheli! Really good! It seems to me that it has light purple veins in the petals... is it right? If this is the case, I mean if there are visible veins inside the tissue (not on the surface of the petals) then your plant is not semi-alba, but variety venosa which is seldom seen and a very sought for variety.

Mauro, there are veins in the petals. But I still cannot identify whether it is var. venosa. The photo was took under natural light which shows the veins.

From what I can see in the photo, yes, it is variety venosa, Pheli.
