You are welcome. I hope the blog was useful to you. When your S. radiosa blooms make sure to post some photos for us. I think others would enjoy seeing the flowers as well.

The pseudobulbs of S. oculata and S. martiana that are mature enough to flower are approximately 1-1.5 inches. My S. martiana is a bit slow growing so it may take longer to flower than S. oculata. ...

Thanks Gwallogwyn and Steve. I think with your input this seems likely a S. Ronsard hybrid. After some better care when it blooms next year, the inflorescence will hopefully look more like yours G.
