Default White Cattleya

This is a white mini-Catt that is not a NOID but I haven't found the correct info yet. It's #248 from the Shannon Orchids catalog...I hope to have the name sometime soon

Excellent catt Sue, does the bloom have a tint of soft green? Shannon Orchids .... a local in your area?

It just opened today and isn't quite there yet but the very tips of the petals seem to have a green hint to them. I'll get a better gauge of the true bloom tomorrow

Shannon's was a grower in area before I got here. I do have a friend who has access to their old catalogs so there's a chance I will be able to find out the name for this one.

These White Catts are perfect! I love them. Is it fragrant?

I've got to take an update later today!
I looked this morning and it is gorgeous! It has a very pale coloring at the center, very pastel yellow.

Shadow, I have about 250, including the 13 I picked up this morning from my friend's house

Tin, I haven't noticed a fragrance yet but I'll keep checking

We just built a room for the 'chids! Now, everybody's asking when and where the next one goes
