This is a first bloom flower from a cross of album parents that is blooming out with a range of coloration. Given that I continue to grow it well over the next several years, what can I expect in improvements in form and size?
Current measurements with average awarded measurements from OrchidWiz in parentheses are:
NS 15.0 (13.0)
NSV 13.1 (15.0)
DSW 3.5 (3.9)
DSL 5.5 (5.5)
PW 1.0 (1.0)
PL 10.0 (12.0)
Comments on form and color are also welcome.
Thanks
Gary

I think the flower already has beautiful shape and color and I have also never seen one with that coloring! The flowers may get slightly larger as the plant matures. Thank you for sharing with us!

Thank you for all the kind comments. I have given it a clonal name 'Gyrfalcon', one of the largest falcons which has highly variable plumage, but includes white and silver forms and is found in France, the home country of the originator and registrant, Lebuady( I hope, found info on Lebaudy once; now I can't find it again).
