Laelia Santa Barbara Sunset
I bought this one in October at the Tampa Orchids sale. It had 2 spikes which each put out 2 flowers. Very pretty flowers that see to get more orange with age.

Did yours bloom for you Dana ?
This one seemed to take forever to get it's spikes up and blooms open. I put it where it gets pretty bright light in the late afternoon and it seemed to like it!

I had one of these but it grew me out of house and home. I gave it to my son, but it's not doing so hot as he sorta stopped caring for his chids. I should probably take it in again, get it healthy and give it to someone who'll take care of it.
Yours is very pretty Laura.
