"Hair Pig" is kinda a mean name for such a pretty bloom.

That name is a mean joke... but it IS hairy.
Here's the newest bud. An easy growing rewarding plant for those who don't mind sprawling ungainly big Catts. And it has the digbyana fragrance! Starting in the afternoon too, you don't have to wait until after dark.

I'm in love with your flower! The pic of the latest to open is delightful, and digbyana's fragrance is a wonderful one.
Whether you call it a Brassavola or a Rhyncholaelia, digbyana is truly one of my favorite orchids. Though I'm a Phal grower, I will always keep (at least) one in my collection; mine grows well enough but with a bit more light might be happier. When I was a boy my family visited Biltmore, and I first encountered orchids; digbyana or a hybrid thereof truly caught my attention.
