Cattleya trianae var. alba 'II'
Years ago I acquired a compot of trianae alba. This is one of them, a very charming white flower!

You bet I am, Debs  !!
I can't say exactly (I didn't make the account!), but as far as I remember now I must have about 8 trianae alba.

Here's another, Debs. This looks like an alba, but a careful examination revels a very diluted, almost unperceivable pink in the back of the dorsal sepal. It looks like an alba, but has to be correctly labeled as albescens.
