Rhyncholaelia digbyana

[Becky15349]

Hi all, thanks for your replies! I recently got my digbyana from Fenders Flora in Venice Florida - such nice people! Anyways, the plant is large; it has about 9 pulbs and looks to have bloomed about 4 times in the past. It wasn't exactly cheap, but for a species, I had actually expected to pay more for a plant of this size. When you say they are slow growing...can you quantify this somehow? I would be okay if it will bloom only 1x per year, but is it slower than that? I also have the Ports of Paradise digbyana hybrid; its never bloomed for me yet, it drives me crazy. Maybe in the summer? It has a growth maturing now that looks very promising...
