Laelia jongheana (another)
 
This is a little darker than the other I posted days ago. I wanted to put it in sphagnum like I did with its sister, but... didn't have the guts for that because it rooted so well on a tree fern stick! I had my jongheanas mounted exactly this way and lost them all, including a precious variety alba. Fortunately this one survived and... surprise! flowered!!!

It's a beauty Mauro! You mentioned the one's you lost that were mounted, do they not like to be mounted?

These are Beautiful Mauro! I love the two side by side showing the variations in color tone. Excellent! :drool:

Experts say jongheana do best mounted, Becca. Never worked for me, except for this one. So, I abandoned this method and am now planting them in sphagnum. So far, so good!
