    Default Brassavola cucullata

    This is a cucullata clone with a reddish border (instead of a yellow one)

    No fragrance: I also attached a link with a picture to the normal clone

    I nearly killed this one, by leaving it too long in broken down substrate - so no flowers this year (but hopefully next year again)

    Give it a sniff at night, I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Mines blooming now too. Growing mine in a teak basket with no medium. Seems to like it.

    That is fantastic, Lars. Bravo on such a unique coloring in this Brassavola cucullata.
