My favorite Bc. hybrid
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.

Beautiful! Fragrant too!! If it's not registered, maybe you should consider registering it.

I just looked it up, it is registered as Bc. Angel Lace. Kind of weak...
