This came with the greenhouse, I have no idea who made it or if it is registered. It is C. Little Angel x Brassavola (Rhyncholaelia) digbyana. It has all the fragrance of digbyana, and a huge flower. Unfortunately, it also seems to have the unifloral habit of digbyana, this is its third bloom and only one each time. A nice long-lasting flower, too.

Wow!

Fantastic, but I must dissagree with you. I think the unifloral habit is a gem in this case. To have several of this fantastic flower compete for space and disturb each other would be terrible.

Perhaps if I can get it to set several leads simultaneously... It does bloom a couple times a year though.

Magnus, that would be the ultimate..

Rob you growing stinker you...what a gorgeous chid, it has such soft elegance, one bloom at a time. If within your research nada on the registered chid, would love to see another "register" with your name on it...
