Promenaea just opened for me

Promenaea Limelight 'Willow Pond' HCC x Crawshyana 'MiHi' HCC It had a couple of spikes when I got it back in March, they were just starting out. I think I lost at least one spike, but this one just opened today.

Very nice Prom! I've not seen a white one before. It makes lovely contrast with with the markings.

I'd say its more a cream color then a true white. The one I saw in bloom at the SOOS (Southern Ontario Orchid Show) was more of a pale yellow even. But like you I liked the contrasting markings against the pale background.

Any special care tips for these. I've just been keeping the medium slightly moist.
