I have been growing this for several years, a selfing of 'Valley Isle' from Exotic Orchids of Maui. It's a strange plant. It has nice roots but little vigor, and this is the first time it has "really" flowered. Even though plant is old and of decent size, the flower quality is iffy. But, the color is amazingly dark and I'll give it a little more time.<br />

This semi-alba is from the Blanca x Aurora cross. It is doing OK, but past experience shows that it can do better, with bigger growths and flowers. Still, pretty nice.<br />

I got this seedling from Cal-Orchid in summer 2007. It is blooming for the first time. The cross is Just Right x Bon Dia (so a half-sib of my other labiata semi-alba). It has been growing fairly well, but the last three growths/sheaths produced no buds. There is just a bit of color in the throat, which is why is superficially appears to be an alba form.<br />
