Balao is a versicolor wildform discovered in Ecuador by a Dr. Schwerdtfeger. Still considered a rare acquisition here in the states, hybridizers in europe have been using this cultivar for years to produce some beautiful offspring. Her color right now is very light. I am told that she can darken up quite a bit. This is her first day blooming and the weather has been quite cool. Both of these factors have probably influenced her color today.
