    I'd like to see this crossed with luteoalba. Will the color of the petals come through?

    I dont know if the salmon color will come through in that cross. The column color normally doesnt come through really saturated either. I have some thompsonii by luteo alba v rhodosticta and its kind of a orange creamy hue.

    As far as getting that pronounced salmon color, Ive been discussing Aerangis mooreana by Eurychone galandrea which should be a nice result.
