I really love the yellow one. I have no room for plants that large, thus I go for minis, but if I did....!

Ross the yellow one is actually small. It's in a 4 inch pot and the flower are only about 4 inches across but they look bigger and the lip is spotted in red

Yes it's fairly small and it grows fast and according to the people at the nursery it always blooms after a new shoot comes out.

Roly, I have the BL Yellow Bird. It is a nice one! It will get bigger fast, too. Mine last bloomed in Feb and sent out 3 spikes with about 3 flowers on each spike. The yellow seems to fade to almost white over a couple weeks but the red 'freckles' stay visible. I just looked at it and it has 6 little sheath-things that will be bloom spikes and 5 new growths. In other words: it doubled since Feb!

Susie, how much bigger does it get? I had this figured as a near-mini, but now you have me wondering?
