Enc. tampensis alba 'Mendenhall' AM/AOS
cant take credit for the blooms. New purchase. Spent years looking for one of these. It was the very first plant i bought when i got into growing chids about 20 years ago. Sadly I went through a phase where I gave all my plants away about 12 years ago. So Im very pleased to have one back now.

Looks a lot like it's original parent: E. tampensis. Hope the fragrance is the same. Thanks for sharing.
