Ok, so two weeks since I have attempted the pollination and I have a small update. I tried the cross both ways, using the C intermedia pollen on the Prosthechea and vice versa. The seed pod failed on the C intermedia, but it looks like the Prosthechea is actually making a pod. Has swollen quite a bit in the last two weeks. Never thought the cross would work this way, figured the larger flower (intermedia) would have a better chance at producing a seed pod when pollinated by the smaller as I had read something along these lines before but she seems to be progressing. I will keep updating this thread as the weeks go by!
