Plexia laxa and Trichopilia turialbae

[tenman]

Turialbae usually is a little cupped and doesn't open fully, but yours looks a little severe. It may be just that clone, or more likely a cultural issue: humidity, temperature (cool) or other variable.

Thanks for the opinion. All my other Trichopilia do just fine in exactly the same culture, but it seems that this one needs something different. Hard to find specific culture info for turialbae on the web, so I will just tinker with it (until I get it right or kill it, I guess).
