Default Brassia Rex 'Sakata'

This is a tough one to photograph. Its about 4 1/2 ft wide and that green color is always a challenge for me.
I have been told that the plant is a tetraploid, which produces these large flowers.

Wow! This is a great plant, and as far as I can see no single spot on
the leaves. Well done. I wish I could do that with Brassia's, mine
always look like they are variegated :-(

Nice photo and beautiful plant. Like Niek my leaves are not pristine.
But mine is grown is such high light it tends toward the lime green.
Love this lush color.
