    Beautiful! Great job! I actually have this cross, and mine looks completely different. I love how siblings can vary like this! This cross is registered by Mickey's Orchids as Bc Adrienne Arsht.

    Quite surprised the nodosa lip did not dominate as it usually seems to in hybrids. Quite nice. As Betty asked, did it inherit nodosa's fragrance? (Probably only at night I imagine, if it did.)
    “If nature were not beautiful it would not be worth knowing, and life would not be worth living. I am not speaking, of course, of the beauty which strikes the senses, of the beauty of qualities and appearances. I am far from despising this, but it has nothing to do with science. What I mean is that more intimate beauty which comes from the harmonious order of its parts, and which a pure intelligence can grasp.” - Henri Poincare

    This prompted me to look up Adrienne Arsht. It is a typical-looking nodosa hybrid, not unlike Binosa. Mazlani, you need to consider that yours is not a B. nodosa hybrid, but a different pretty green flower.

    Come to think of it, I do not recall any fragrance which is highly unlikely for a B. nodosa hybrid. Need to dig deeper on this. Thanks for looking and commenting everybody. Really appreciate it .

    Very nice green! The splash of purple really sets it off.

    I too like the purple splash of color on the lip of these orchid blooms.

    cheers,
