Its ancestor Acacallis/Aganisia cyanea from the Amazon basin is often submerged during flowering season with only flower spikes above the water.

Thanks for that information. Interesting about the Aganisia cyanea being submerged. I've had it over a year and it seems to be doing OK but definitely needs a larger pot. I will try your suggestion of standing it in a dish of water. I keep it indoors and it is located near a north facing window. It hangs out with 3 Zygopetalums.
