I'm not familiar with 'Ice Palace'. I also have 'Snow Moon' BM/CSA and 'Crystelle' AM/AOS and this is a better clone. I love this cross because
they are all strong growers and look great even when not in bloom.
'Ice Castle' got an HCC 77 in 2003 when it was shown in Hawaii by Lehua Orchids. Then in 2011 it was elevated to an AM 83 when it was shown by Orchids Ltd. In 2003 its ns was 9.0 vs 2011 11.4. Petal width 5.0 vs 5.2. I don't see 'Crystelle', but I am using the online version of OrchidsPlus.
From what I understand the no spots/all white is a great trait.
