Cochleanthes Amazing
This little, big-lipped beauty is a cross of Cnths. flabelliformis x Cnths. amazonica. I acquired it in a trade last year.

STUNNING-LY GORGEOUS! This is my very next purchase. I love this plant, lost my first one to poor culture last year. I'm not giving up.
Jasen, how are you growing this, if you don't mind my asking?

Potted in fir bark, in about 50% light. It's in the part of my shadehouse that gets shaded by the house unti about 4pm.....if I had to guess, I'd call it "high Phal light".
I also have Cnths.flabelliformis, which bloomed about two months ago....looked almost identical to this one. I'd offer a trade, but these aren't quite big enough yet.

I swear, this is dangerous for me! Pretty soon I'm going to have all kinds of new species invading my house.
