Stuart,
I suspect what the Seidel Catalog was listing
as the alba form, was in reality the aurea or yellow form of L.
tenebrosa. Some people would call this an alba form but it is not, as alba means
white. Several of the yellow forms have been awarded by the AOS and the
RHS.

'alba'
Laelia tenebrosa "alba"
Does this plant exist?
Can someone point me in the direction of a photo
,seed or plants if so.
I remember seeing it listed in an Alvim seidel
catalog years ago but no photo.
There are other minor references alluding to
it but i can find nothing convincing.
THANKS
Stuart
