Thanks tucker!
I actually bought this as I was feeling very low (my cat had been missing for a month, and I had just got the news that my very old dog, who was my very best friend, had little time left) - I was in TJ's and there was a Catt! So I bought it hoping it might lift my spirits a little.
That first blooming, and the next, flowers didn't open all the way - I thought it might always bloom that way, but the following 3 bloomings, most, if not all, blooms opened fine (had a couple wonky ones last year).
It has turned out to be quite a nice orchid - has great temperature tolerance, easy grower and bloomer, and I was happy to see so many buds on it this year - and definitely look forward to future bloomings after hearing it should continue to get better!
Thank you for your comments!
