Mormodes paraensis

[Regelian]

Recently described (1993), Mormodes paraensis comes in a variety of colours. This is the flava form. A first-bloom seedling imported from Brazil, the flowers are about 3 cm on an 8cm p-bulb. I suspect it would normally bloom in my Winter.

Beautiful! Now to get it on a Northern Hemisphere schedule... I'm dealing with the same right now. It's strange to have dormant plants in the heat of summer. I thought for sure they'd be triggered into growth by now.

Most of my imports have already started into growth after only 2 weeks. The few straglers may become problematic. I keep misting them and hope for a growth bud to trigger. We are currently very warm and humid, which has helped the others.

Looks great! Which vendor did you get it from?

[Regelian]

Hey, Steve,
it came from Buena Vista. They have lots of interesting species and hybrids, all from seed. Quality has been excellent, as well. here is a shot of my last import right out of the box.
