Happy! It has finally bloomed. Bought from a Taiwan grower who came to Singapore for the Garden Fest in August.

I think someone mislabeled a pot hahaha, it's still a nice tetraspis though...

Is that a violacea? Love it!

Pretty tetraspis! I like the light random bars and touch of pink in the lip.

Sorry but as Suri85 pointed out it's mislabeled and not an var. alba

A true 'var alba' of Phal tetraspis is very rare. If your flower had a lip that had no color then it would be a true alba. Additionally it would not show any random bars either.

Here's a pic of a true tetraspis var. alba

Thks Judi. Yeah it's not a pure alba. Think that would have cost at least double what I paid. It's still in bloom quite remarkable and many buds on the way. Will post again when they fully open.

Every time I comment on a topic I use almost the same words.... ORCHIDS are fragile, delicate, beautiful, colored in splendid nuances like THIS ONE.
