    Default Psychopsis papilio

    I just love this genus...My papilio has 4 blooming spikes this year. The oldest spike has been blooming for 5 or 6 years now.





    and the alba form. The alba's flower is significantly smaller than the normal color form

    Thanks Hera....I wish my pics were better...I just have a point and shoot digital.


    Adam the alba is not easy to find...I lucked across a seedling a few years back and I obtained another seedling in a trade last year.
