I’ve been in love with this plant since I bought it from SBOE about a year ago. It blooms off each new growth and typically has 2-3 growths per period so I get an extended show!

Only weird thing about this plant is that it is much larger than either parent. It has 6”, long and thin pseudobulbs that are topped by 6” leaves. I thought it would be a mini when I bought it but I’m not disappointed by it in the least.

Beautiful! I love the coloring so much!

Thank you!

Very nice! I, too, love that color.

Gorgeous pastel colors. That is odd that it is bigger than either parent would be. Hybrid vigor perhaps?

Fantastic colour. Cerise on orange.
How big are the flowers ?

Thank you!

Each flower is ~4'' across, so they are pretty good sized too!
