Default Scaphosepalum merinoi

Lovely thing. Not too big - leaves about 4" long, spikes about 8" long, flowers 3/4" wide. Successive bloomer, seems like it throws spikes all the time and is in bloom most of the time. Mine is a smallish division - I have high hopes for it once it gets bigger!
I got this from Orchid Limited (Buy Orchids and Orchid Supplies). Originally came from Ecuagenera (www.ecuagenera.com).
I grow it in my 30 gallon terrarium in the basement. It's in a 2" pot in sphagnum moss.

I'm not sure how I missed the voting for the calendar contest. Just not paying attention, I guess!
