Nicely done, Darlene.
I have two(regular and alba) and I am getting two more. They are all from different sources/crosses...I just love this species.
 
Indeed Darlene, and yours is the real one, without these few black dots on the centre of the petals. Lovely !
I understand it may not be an alba technically speaking but I'm very fond of that "variety" of alba--a little bit of yellow on the petals and a few black dots..... and I would love to have one if I can find it.
 
Thanks, Tom. I really like this clone. Venustum took a while to grow on me. They are so unique looking that they are hard to resist.
I am really into species from the Barbata section...most of them are easy and small/medium in size. I"ve added at least six species from this section for the last 2 months.

The two unbloomed siblings of this clone have slightly darker leaves. I am curious to see if the leaf color translates to any differences in the flower. Maybe a more yellow color🤔?
It is possible, Darlene. I hope you will get one with some yellow on the petal and on the pouch if you do like that "variety".
