It has been rhyncholaelia for quite some time now. One of the few cattleya type things that wasn't lumped back into cattleya.

I'd say that mine don't get huge in the height direction. They do...

I have several R. digbyana and about 8 flasks worth of helenae seedlings (they are small, but then again they aren't going to get big)... Don't know if that helps.

Where in Michigan? If you aren't going to orchid society meetings, you are certainly welcome to. We have lots of societies in Michigan. Let me know and I'll hook you up.

It doesn't typically flower in July, but it never seems to flower during show season. Late April, May, June... I grow under lights most of the year, a lot of my plants have weird timing.

I've had it for the better part of 15 years, I'd guess. Probably came with a bunch of other plants from a grower I bought out.

I did just look through the AOS awards to C. mossiae, and mine would...

How often can you repot paph seedlings? Not as often as I should. You could easily repot them every six months and not set them back at all, they would probably grow faster that way. You need to...

Maybe. It isn't really a happy way for it to grow. I would probably cut that growth up and pot it down as deeply as possible (up to that top root node). Perhaps in sphagnum moss for a few months. ...

For me they always seem to grow faster as single pots. I kind of move from a big compot to 'mini' compots to individual pots as time goes by.

Is not getting enough light. That is a new growth stretching for light, the bumps are (or would have been) roots.

They aren't tiny... Smallish for cattleyas. "mid-size" is probably more accurate.

I had so many of these at one point... I might still have a couple somewhere. Nice flowers.
