    Could it be Angraecum dryadum?

    I meant to check on this a month or so ago and just forgot. Now I can't find it.

    I think you are right, Jacob, and that it is Ang. dryadum as you suggest. Thanks!

    Marni, I would suggest that its not dryadum, your flower is slightly different and its pure white, dryadum is and stays green in the petals.

    Hi Roy,

    I was basing my guess only on the photo on page 55 of the recent Angraecoid Orchids (Stewart et al) book.

    Speciation is not determined based on colors.

    It wasn't, a previous post would confirm that.
