Gorgeous, I am starting to like these semi-alba's: without realising I have already collected a few!!

Nice semi-alba flowers!

Beautiful! I love these orchids and have a few. I cannot get them to bloom. Maybe it is the winter sun which is lacking. I'll give them another year before throwing in the towel.

So lovely - great growing Charm...

Very pretty. Since they need full winter sun, they won't go on my 'got to have' list.

That's so pretty. When did it put on the flowering growth? I'm imagining it has a lovely scent too.

John, this orchid puts on new growth in very early spring, it will bloom on new growth and old.~Charm

I found a site that says that "in the United States, growth begins in early February and is completed by mid-May." Does this correspond to your experience?

Here is a link that might be useful: Cattleya gaskelliana growing information

John, yes it does. This is a very easy orchid to grow and bloom if it's given enough sun. get one you'll love it!~Charm

Charm - what light and how warm? I can't get mine to bloom. I love these plants.
