Blc. Ports of Paradise Male
Default Blc. Ports of Paradise

It was labelled as Blc. Ports of Paradise‘ Gleneyrie's Green Giant’ but the clone does not have red fimbriated lip.
The fragrance smells like its parent, Rhy. digbyana.

It is a green flower but will turn yellow gradually.
But for this photo, it looks more yellow than green due to the camera setting.

Pheli,

That is a big beautiful bloom...and I like the red edging on the lip...it gives it a unique flare.

I hope that you and your family are OK after the typhoon that hit your area. I heard that it was a pretty big storm.

Thanks, David.
The typhoon hit Taiwan yesterday and brought a lot of rain. Fortunately, it did not do a lot of damage to my area. The weather here has been changing gradually, we used not to have so many typhoons in autumn, but in the past 3 weeks, there were 3 typhoons hitting here and caused a lot of damage to our mountainous areas.

Pheli,

I didn't realize that there had been 3 storms in recent weeks. I am very glad to hear that you are safe and doing ok. Take care.
