That's a really pretty Phal, Jay. White Lightning is just a stunner, too. I am a fool for white flowers, so elegant.

I have a nice little surprise bloom this morning, I think it is one of the various B. nodosa crosses from Apopka that I mounted and it has sulked for at least a year. Finally giving us some flowers!

Lindsey, I think those purple Brassavola flowers do fade remarkably in the dry weather - here's the last two on my B. Punakea that are almost completely white now. The fading isn't so noticeable in more humid weather, it seems.
