Aspasia lunata var. semi-alba

This is a nice variation of this Brazilian species in which the commonly violet-purple lip is white. The plant is still small and gave just one flower.

Really lovely, Mauro! I love the Aspasias. Never seen this alba variety before. Very cool.

Very nice Mauro. I have the alba variety of this one, so it is interesting to see the differences between the 3!
