Is it more green tinted or yellow? The photo looks greenish to me. I like the contrast of pale green with the purple/pink lip. Thanks for posting this one!

Nice. Think I prefer it this way before aging to yellow

This is one of my favorites. We have a division also that has grown into a specimen plant. The blooms are a great green color. Wonderful BLC!

Cheers,

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .

Big green semi-floof...

I love the lip--it is gorgeous...and the 7" flowers, eh? Superb (Yes..I have a thing for huge flowers.)
