This is such a great species! Don't forget to smell it after all the lights have been turned off for a couple of hours. Smells really 'citrusy.'

Beautiful flower! It sent me off to the books to check out other Brassavolas. And I made this interesting discovery; apparently botanists moved digbyana to rhyncholaelia. But so many places I checked still use B. instead of Rh. I'm not sure what source to trust. But I am sure of this:If you are having trouble handling the camera and the orchid, always drop the camera.
Again, beautiful flower, congratulations.
