A self-crossing of the awarded alba form of one of the most iconic species in the Cattleya alliance.
Rhyncholaelia digbyana (previously known as Brassavola dighyana) produces large, pale-green flowers with an enormous, dramatically fringed lip. Being tetraploid, seedlings can be expected to show particularly large, full flowers with exceptional substance. The flowers carry a sweet, citrus-like fragrance, strongest in the evenings.
Large-sized it grows best in warm to hot conditions and high light with good air movement. Water freely during active growth, then reduce significantly in winter as pseudobulbs mature.

The photo is an example of the flower for reference only. The other photo is an example of the size of the plant for sale (4 cm pot).
Note also that because this is a cross, the seedlings will all have different flowers in a range of possibilities coming from the two parents.
