    I got this plant so long ago I haven't any idea where I got it. Its dramatic flowers are among my favorites, but I hadn't seen them for at last a decade until last year. Mounting the plant on cork with a dab of sphagnum after building the GH three summers ago was the ticket to a healthier, more floriferous plant. Since being mounted, the growths have doubled in size and it bloomed last year and now this year on two spikes. A brazilian miltonia, it likes high light and warm temps. The large flowers are deliciously fragrant.
