Wow, really nice one, Bayard! I love orange flowers. What temperature range do you grow this in?

Thanks for your comments - I grow this one in high quality New Zealand sphagnum moss (AAAA). It grows at the cooler end of the greenhouse in Cattleya light and gets watered as the moss starts to dry. Gets fed at every watering with 50 - 100 ppm nitrogen (Cal-mag plus) in pH corrected RO water.

I absolutely love this species. I don't have it but boy do I wish that I did. I saw it at the SBOS website a couple of days ago and inmediately fell in love with it. I think that if I do get it I'll keep it indoors with my cyclamen. Would 70 degree temperatures will be ok or does it need to be cooler??
