Default Laelia bradei, Gastrochilus japonicus & Trichopilia tortilis
Laelia bradei (first time bloom with me), a real mini. Flowers are 2.3 cm wide



Gastrochilus japonicus: third or fourth bloom this year



Trichopilia tortilis: second bloom this year (has had 4 other flowers this time, but only one open at a time - in previous blooms it has had up to 5 flowers open at the same time)

Those are some very interesting and beautiful species Ramon. I am trying to grow about half a dozen rupiculous laelias. They are growing well and have sheaths but no flowers yet.
