Nice looking blooms! I don't know why, I thought they had more purple than that on the lip. Bu it's very nice like this with a few faint vertical stripes.

Nice! Mine is about your size and just finished up a non stop bloomfest for about 6 months! Hopefully yours will do the same. What is the media you are using for yours?

This is one of my new favorite orchids (I'm gonna get one as soon as I can). I like the purple striations on the lip.


Any fragrance?
