if you look at the parents of the hybrid catts you already have, you might notice that many of them have a rupiculous one in there somewhere to reduce the plants overall size.

Its known that the hybrids of the rupiculous ones are much easier to grow than a straight rock crunchin munchkin.

So you probably already have a few in your collection and might not know it :)

So glad this thread is open!!!!!!!!!! i really want to grow these too!!!! i like the site that you mentioned at orchid works!!!

Does anyone know where i can get these in The USA? I looked at the Canada site and they do not ship internationally!

I've had no problem growing any of the species in straight moss. Tightly collared in clay. Large bark had worked well too.

I've been growing L. flava, fournieri, ghillanyi, and milleri for about 3 years mounted on branches about 8"-12" long and about 1 1/2" diameter. They were a little slow to get established, but they're doing OK now. I water them almost every day during the growing season. Here's pics of recent blooms on milleri and fournieri.

Very nice Dave.

Thank you! Thank you!

Excellent link!

I ironically got my first of this species last week (Laelia caulescens) and this thread could not have been more timely :biggrin:
