Default Brassavola cordata
Probably dont give this one enough light, but I finally got this one to bloom since I bought it. Had an RF orchids giftcard, and since they dont really do Phals, I chose a couple other things. Huge plant on a 4inch x 14inch treefern mount. 6 blooms on 2 spikes, and the fragrance at night is just awesome.

Excellent choice Jarad. Looks like a nice plant. Let the sunshine!

Mine tend to grow with a nice reddish ting to their leaves, so they are getting enough light.

Got my eyes open for all the species in this genus.

More light will give it more flowers! Just throw this one outside and let it grow! Looks good though.
