    Smile Zygonisia Cynosure 'Blue Birds'

    One of my favorite nurseries has started selling some very nice plants. I should have had my camera today...three or four bulbo types were in bloom and the oncid types were very difficult to leave behind. I found a small phal and this, my blue bird.

    The first pic is with flash, the second with no flash is truer to color. It's a very dark purple...
