Another Enc. tampensis

This is another tampensis that I received last year, in a collection that I bought from someone.

Hey, that is fantastic!

can you comment on the conditions you are growing it? watering, light, humidity etc?

I have a tampensis. it bloomed this year but not nearly that well.

Thanks! Mine is grown in medium light, misted twice a day (in the summer), and fed once a week. I imagine that it helps being in Tampa, and all.....since this is it's natural habitat. Also, it is a relatively old plant....which allowed for a lot of new growths over the winter.

I think the "being in tampa" part is especially true. I imagine you grow it outside?

Wow ! That's an awesome plant. I really like the fact that you have it mounted. I have tampensis var alba, can't wait for that to bloom.

Good growing,
Eric

Nice one Jasen. I remember when you got that collection. Is this the one that you weren't sure about until it bloomed? How do you think it stacks up against other tampensis?
