I'm curious, too. They seem to be as big as your typical multifloral in pictures.

it will be very interesting to see how it 'breeds'.

Whre are you located that you can find this?

 

[spujr]

Lovingly ripped from the internet, here is laoticus x niveum and x rungsuriyanum. Basically it breeds like insigne but bigger.

 

[Happypaphy7]

Yeah, unfortunately the large plant size is a no no.

I didnt realise the plant was that big. I wonder how it went undiscovered for so long?
