Nice "big" pouch on this one. Pure white orchids are VERY difficult to photograph, though I may have made this one a bit too dark.

Very nice, Steve! How many growths does it have? Is it one of 'Oaxaca' or 'Windy Hill' clones?

This one has about 6 growths and has started cranking out several new leads in the past few weeks. It is 'Windy Hill,' though I understand there are more than just the two you mentioned nowadays. I'm assuming the new clones are offspring of 'Windy Hill' and 'Oaxaca.'

Adorable lil bugger! If I didn't find paphs and phrags so difficult, I'd be so very tempted to get one of these. They're just my size!

Amazing Steve, I am actually looking for one of these, they are supposedly small plants? May I ask for the picture of your plant and also where did you get yours? Many thanks!
