Default Cattleya mossiae alba

This one I have had for 4 years now. It started out as a small 3 pseudobulb division and has grown like a weed with 19 pseudobulbs in a 6" pot with room to spare and is a fairly compact grower. The flowers are in the 5" range.

That's beautiful! I have wanted a mossiae for a while and recently got a small pink one. It will be a while before it blooms, but in the meantime I will enjoy yours and others'. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comments gals!

Even though the blooms are small and average shape, this is one of my favorites.
