Psychopsis papilio var alba

[Ron-NY]

I purchased this as a seedling a few years back. The spike that has this flower developed last fall but is only starting to bloom. I have 2 more spikes developing. The lip is small, I sure hope as the plant matures that improves

Do they bloom around the same time? I know these guys can last for months - sometimes years in bloom. I have never seen a yellow one like yours here. Most are yellow with brown spots.

In the dead of winter, all of mine rest. Too cold for them I would suspect. Four or five are getting ready to bloom. I was very excited when I found this alba. I think I got it from a CT vendor at the Cape and Island show a few years back.Here is the normal color form of the species.

I have 3 different forms of alba psychopsis species, all still quite small. How big is the plant that is blooming for you?

Wow. I'm not mad over yellow flowers, but this one is stunning. Onto the wish list with it!!
