BC Angel Lace
my most favorite all time bloomer. smells good too 
its an old plant of maybe 3 years. lost a few back bulbs and its starting over with some new shoots where it died back. I did cut it and sometime cutting the bad stuff off gets em going again. They will spend the energy trying to save the dying bulb and will set the blooms back a season or 2 depending on how much you lost or gained. Gets 70% sun and fertilized on occasion. My plants would bloom better if I consistently fed them. My life been upside down so the orchids get the same treatment. Im glad just to have some flowers ya know.

Very pretty flowers. Definitely can see the Rhyncholaelia digbyana influence in that lip.

thanks for peeking in. The flowers smells so good. Just makes you want to be a bug!!!
1st opened up they have a mint greenish tint to the flower and only gets pink after a few days. Then it fades out and we wait for next year
