    This is an intermediate grower. The flowers are about 2.25" tall, produced on a long spike. There were about 50 flowers this time.

    OH MY GOODNESS MARNI!!!! I looked at the whole plant shot, awesome, I feel a bit of a country bumkin when I say, I never saw a pink one before. I've tried crytochilum several times as I love the flowers, but it's just too hot here in the valley.

    I had a different clone in the POE about 2 years ago. When they get this big, it is hard to take them anywhere. This species seems to like intermediate tempertures as opposed to most to of the others that I grow that want cool-cold nights.

    Very nice! The other clone was FUN to move, wasn't it?

    It was, but it was a much more manageable size that this one.
