My new Laelia harpophylla
Added this one to my collection.
I own an harpophylla already but it's a L. harpophylla (Caliman x Sandra) which I think has a yellow to whitish flower while this one has the orange flower.
It came to me from Equagenera through one of the usual vendors where I buy my plants.
Some photos:

Sure, bought it to get more available space for small pots.
As the pots diameter are smaller than the circles in the structure, I managed to find this solution using gardening wire (small pots = light wheight = wire resists).

The rupicolous Laelias are all quite pretty, aren't they! The combination of the vibrant orange tepals and the pale ruffled lip is very nice.  |

The orange colour is so nice. The bridal gown lip is incredibly nice and elegant too.

Below there are some photos of my second harpophylla, var 'Caliman x Sandra'. The diference from my other harpophylla (previous posts) is the number of flowers per spike. The C x S has 3 to 4 flowers per spike while the first one has only one.
All the rest seems to be the same (shape, colour, size).

This one is, definitely, a species I recommend to everyone: easy to grow, small (more space), large flowers (relatively to plant size), vibrant colour, cheap (at least here: 15€ / 18 USD), etc.
