Ruffled orchids--only green?

9 years ago

I had only seen orchids with ruffled lips on green orchids until I visited a friend and she had one that she found in the trash on a walk with her dog. So I brought home a cutting in Feb. and it bloomed this morning. No clue to the name of it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It likely has some digbyana in the mix...

What ever the name, it's a real beauty.

That's what I thought shavemonkey and if it had a scent it would be a most prized possession without it's a prized possession. It's has a big bloom like goldenzella and Kong Sun.
