Thanks. I purchased it from Equagnera last fall at a local show. Easy to grow I find.

Love it! I have one too which I originated from Ecuagenera - I purchased it at my OS auction last Feb. It is growing mounted - several new growths and lots of new roots, so I think it is happy. No sign of blooms yet. Any tips?

Looks like a different flower today...amazing the difference one day makes...so seems to me that it wont last long unfortunately. It is a lot more upright and open and the little lips bounce away.

I keep my bulbos constantly moist and they seem to love it. I guess as long as good airflow its ok. No special treatment, it appears to be an easy grower and mine only has 4 or 5 pbulbs...so yours sounds to be blooming size. Good luck. I grow my bulbos under t5s...

Awesome second picture, thank you ... oh dear, cumingii has gone straight up to the top of my "have to have list", now just got to find one. Thanks for the moisture tip, my environment is rather dry so best to keep the moisture / humiduty up.

Great picture. I keep mine moist too - It's in a net pot that sits in about 1/4" of water. I grow under natural light, so I wonder if I need to give it more light. Mine is also in the 4-5 bpulb range. SO there is hope

It can get really dry and hot in my sun room, particularly in the summer...so I keep the majority of my bulbos in their individual pots/baskets in large clear tubs/trays....so that when I water it goes through and some remains under and around them...helps to keep the humidity higher.

I would think natural light should suffice, I have no experience with bulbos in natural light however.
