Pale green sepals, pink petals (with some green at the end) and lip white with pink blush towards the top. Very curious about how other people see things: do you see the green/pink bits as darker?

With that many pulbs including 3 others active I don't think there'd be any harm in splitting this one off. Would give you a spare in case the main plant got a bad rot or to trade/sell. If you are...

Bulbofett, you say you get outbid at the last moment? Is that because the bid goes too high or because you don't have time to bid again?

Nice though, and sounds like it has a very nice scent too.

Yes, in most cases alba genes are recessive: you need two of them to show them. So if they only come from one parent they don't show, because you only get one. My point was that the non-alba...

I think female flowers need more light? If I'm right put it somewhere a bit darker and you may still be lucky with any buds not yet formed.
