    This is a first bloom seedling acquired from Cal-Orchid in 2007. There is a bit or red/purple coloration deep in the throat, which is why this is categorized as semi-alba rather than alba. As is true for most labiatas, it has a strong, sweet fragrance. Clabsa3.jpg Clabsa4.jpg

    Such a beautiful classic orchid. I had swung to paphs but seeing this one makes me want to get some catts again. Wonderful flower!
