Cattleya labiata var alba (Photos)
Hey guys these are some pics of my Cattleya Labiata var alba that bloomed a couple of months ago. The fragrance was amazing And wafted across my deck! The Fragrance of my rubra was better though the scent on that was thicker had more body i guess you could say. The flowers were not as good as they could have been, they opened during all the rain we got and it caused bruises and brown spots  But overall it was gorgeous IMO hehehe.
here are the pics!
