What size are your bulbs on the maxima? the lowland ones have bulbs up to 28"

I have the short variety with very red bulbs and leaves (highland variety I think). Here is a link to my gallery with this one blooming: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...a_May_2007.JPG
I also have 2 coeruleas, one of which now has its first sheath, so it may be too young to bloom or maybe not.

Oh so pretty.....congrats!
