Blc. Memoria Vida Lee 'Limelight' AM AOS
I have a couple of these currently in bloom in my collection. The flowers are eye-catching with their bright chartreuse sepals and petals and deep purple spotted lip. I have these plants growing under 50 percent shade cloth. At the time this photograph was taken, the plant had 3 flowers and one bud on one inflorescence.

Well, Sunshine, I guess it pays to live in a climate where you can grow such beauties....all of the pics I've seen of yours are just breath-taking. Congrats on a job well done!

Very, very, lovely. I just love the big "skirt" and the recurved sepals and petals. Makes me want to move to Hawaii. Thanks for the pic.

Hi Don, you can grow 'Limelight' here in Florida too, but it's a great excuse to go to Hawaii anyway. I might have an extra one if you want to try one let me know. |

Hi Roly,
I bought mine from a society member that was moving and selling his last year. Also picked up 1 from someone else moving. Didn't know what it was till it bloomed. They both struggled but are doing fine now. 1 in a pot the other mounted. I love when these bloom. I'll keep you in mind if I have another division maybe next year or find one. |
