Culture Notes from Donor: Pod parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
Comments: I expect that the offspring will be semi-alba.
Pod parent plant: Arguably one of the best walkeriana cultivars around. Temperature tolerant to a wide range. It lives up to its name by walking out of any pot it inhabits. It likes to be mounted if possible. Flowers are very nicely scented. Small plant.
