Cattleya schilleriana var. alba
 

Since last year, we have heard in Brazil about the existence of this plant, resulting from a cross made ​​in AWZ. This year, the flowering was confirmed and now we can hope to see selfs available soon.
This is the first shilleriana alba described.

Aleksandro Zaslawski and Wladyslaw Zaslawski, congrats for the amazing work!

AWZ Orquideas

Thats a pretty flower. I sure hope that they can have that orchid in the market soon.

Wow - very cool!

I love both types of schilleriana.

Wow! Not just alba, but very good shape & lip.

Does the plant take an extra year longer until blooming than the type form?

Be still my heart! That is fabulous!

That's a very rare white version.
I've never heard of this sold or grown in my country.

Pheli, this shilleriana is the first one related on the history!

Catwalk, i dont know about that.
Just know that this is the second flowering, which was expected to confirm the variety.
I hope it's true alba, so the selfs, will generate alba descendents. Otherwise, only with meristem.

The photo was published yesterday and I believe that soon we will have more about this plant. There's so much i want know about it! =)

Very beautiful :D

Wow stunning! Great form and wonderful alba!
