    Default Cookara Bill

    I mail ordered this Gerbarara Snow Ballet back in Oct, 08. It is blooming now, but I don't think it's correctly labeled after I googled image. It looks like the Cookara Bill to me. It has a light and nice fragrance in the morning.
    Anyone has either of them to verify?

    I think you're right. The Gerbarara Snow Ballet on Orchidwiz is white and really doesn't look like yours. Yous is a wonderful color, whatever it may be. Enjoy it.

    I think you are correct with the ID being Cookara Bill.

    Thanks, everyone for the help. The vendor emailed me back and confirmed that it's Cookara Bill and offered to send me a Snow Ballet. I would like to have the Snow Ballet, but I like the color of this

    Most vendors would allow you to keep this one as well for your trouble.
