I would buy a few if I was able. Those are really nice little plants! Look up each of the varieties of colors available dayanum, purpurescens, alba, album, coloratum, vini, etc....

Dear Paphiogrower,
the name is correct. Only it should be forma sanderianum. This the true albine form.
Forma sanderae has some brownish red spots in the dorsal sepal and is not a true albine form. It is more often in trade.
Best greetings
Olaf
