Encyclia cordigera alba

This is last year's blooming of the plant pictured in a previous post on growing in marginal conditions.  There are two common forms of E. cordigera besides the alba.  The rosea form has a solid red lip, and the semi-alba form has a white lip with a red mark.  They all smell great.

    What is the size of the plant ? It appears this maybe blooming on a small (<12") plant.

    This one is definitely much smaller than the other forms. You're right, the leaves are about a foot long.
