Bloom size in 6" pots. Some may be in bloom, others may be previously bloomed. Plants in bloom will be sent out first.
"Dark spots" is the first photo, "light spots" exact bloom shown in the second photo
Species/Hybrid: Species
Plant size: BS, may have previously bloomed
In bud/bloom?: Some are still holding on to some blooms, but may be out of bloom by the time the are shipped
Pot size: 6" round
Fragrant?: YES! (One of my favorites!)
Culture: I grow these on the higher end of Phalaenopsis lighting (~2000-2500fc for Fc fans out there), Water after the roots/potting media have dried out a bit (I say somewhere between a Phal and Cattleya in terms of how much to let it dry out). Do back off a little on watering during the winter months when growth has slowed. Repotting is not usually done as often due to the thick roots that don't like to bend- some people will grow them in the wooden baskets for this reason (like a Vanda). I usually soak with warm water before repotting to help coax the roots to bend a bit. Intermediate-warm temperatures.
