    Default My birthday orchid gift!

    Hello friends! It's been some time since I last visited the forum, but I do not forget you. I want to share a photo of one of my birthday gifts, which I find fabulous. It did not come tagged, but I believe it is a Brassia from what I've learned in the forum. If anyone can provide me a more specific name, that would be another birthday present for me! Thanks and enjoy!

    I think it's a Brassia Rex. Any opinions?

    Dear Carmen...I believe your plant is a Brassidium shooting star black gold. I have one identical to it which just bloomed a short while ago. Beautiful large flowers, right?
