Beallara Tropic Tom 'Pale Face' in bloom

[EDDIE]

Bought this a few months ago in spike. When I first googled a picture of it I didn't think that I would care for it, but I have to say I like this bloom, especially the lavendar color around the lip. I got it for a steal at 10 bucks!

Very nice. Not a lot you can get for $10 these days, well spent I'm sure

you know why its a belleara? Brassia, Cochlioda, Miltonia and Odontoglossum. Usually when the genus name ends with “ara”, that means the genus is made up of four or more natural genera. But sometimes you will find that some names that end with ‘ara’ are only made up of three genera.
x Beallara...Having an x in the front of the genus name is actually the proper way to signify that it is an intergeneric genus.

heh just practicing what Im learned and passing it down...and im bored at work

I love it when people share what they have learned. There is so much to know and so much more to learn. Thanks Rocket.
