    Nice orchid that has bloomed reliably for me over the years.

    hey, how do you grow it, Clark? Growing medium,....light level?

    Very nice, BTW. I had tried two plants before I got a clean/healthy one...

    This is one I always pick up at a show and put right back down. I LOVE the plant and the flowers but I can only imagine what it would look like after a winter or two in the spare bedroom.
    Very pretty, Clark!

    Tom, I grow it hot with as bright as light as I can get in the greenhouse. It's just sitting in a wooden basket, no medium. Watered daily. Last year I cut this piece off from the lower end and now I have two.

    I admire these and never even toy with the idea of growing it. Just don't have what it needs. Thanks for posting.

    I keep looking at this one. Guess that means I'll have to put it back on my list. Damn.
