    Default Brassavola glauca

    It is still a miniature. Some may say this is the alba form of this species because it has no red spot in the throad.

    Thanks.

    The flower is 4"+ and the plant is about 5". The flowers got some red color due to the (too) cool growing condition.

    Awesome, such a nice compact plant. I am getting one this spring and also some of its hybrids from a grower in Brasil who will be exhibiting at Dresden this year.
