    Default C. Porphyroglossa X

    Aka. Bataleninii (Aquinii ?) the tag is hard to read X Ranger Six 'AOK' . I got this at the auction in Ark. last fall it just has the one flower and another growth with a sheath .
    Long time ago I had the Ranger Six over time the roots rotted , I read it is not used a lot because of a lousy root system , But it smelled soo good .

    Hoa , If you find one let me know , I did find one but too much $$$$$$ for me . Ranger is white with lots of scent , the shape of the bloom is a lot like this one .
    The scent was lost . Makes me wonder if it is what it is tagged .
    Thanks to all for looking
