    What a beautiful alba skinneri . Love the pristine white. Great shots - not easy to photograph white blooms but you have done superb job.

    Merci Gustavo.
    My friend Denis has a beautiful collection of Lycaste skinneri. This one is not his best var. alba. Next time, I will buy it a var. rosea.

    Thank you Bruce.

    My var. rosea is about to flower, I'll post some pictures of it. It's a first bloomer, so I'm excited because it's got 3 flower buds!!
