C. Hawaiian Jewel x C. Angelwalker (4N)
Another one destined for the sales bench next week. Well actually I might keep this one, it's the only white one I have so far and it's quite pretty.

Ok I guess I shouldn't start selling them all off.........lol
It's a beautiful pristine white and I should at least let it flower one more time..........;-)
Maybe I'm being too hard on the poor plants huh?

I think so. By the way the pure white is quite rare. One friend of mine was looking for one (pure white) and there was none. So, if you sell it and then will want a replacement it will be hard to find. Or you have lots of them in Australia?

Wow, I would keep that 'chid too! About truly white cattleya-alliance orchids, the only one I saw is Laelia lobata v. alba. I bought a seedling few years ago and....live in hope! Unfortunately L. lobata is a CITES appendix II plant and very difficult to trade (lagally) outside Brazil.
