    Default E. tampense 'alba'

    I got this little guy about 6 months ago. It is in a two inch pot and has two spikes about 12 inches long with lots of buds. This is the first bloom.

    Ohhh Marvelous flower. I really like it. I have the regular one, but did not know this variant existed. Another one for my want-list
