George I have seen lots of C. veluchensis on the Katara Pass but not a white one.

Ossa is a lovely mountain, neglected in favour of Olympus. I have only been there in early May but lots of lovely flowers. Some wonderful Iris reichenbachiana there.

Both are very nice. I like this species very much but haven't seen it in the wild till now. Mine are still completely in the ground.
