Orchid of the day: Brassavola perrinii

Brassavola perrinii


Our Brassavola perrinii, a South American orchid, is very floriferous this time. It has nineteen flowers in comparison to twelve last post, September 4th, 2016. Before that, we only had four flowers (November 14th, 2015). We have it on loan today for an orchid exhibition next week in Washington DC.

Dear friends, this ends my post for this time.
I hope you enjoyed the photos of our Brassavola perrinii. Until the next post, have a good week!
