Laelia pumila

[Gena]

I love this beautiful Brazilian species. The size of the flowers is amazing comparing with a size of the plant. Another lovely characteristic of Laelia pumila is its willingness to bloom. Here is the first flower for this season.

Very nice, Gena. The plant looks happy. Do you grow it in a cachepot, perhaps?

Thank you, Mauro!

It is actually in a wooden basket as the most of my Laelias, excluding purpuratas and tenebrosas, those are in pots.

Really lovely, Gena! You know, you and Mauro are pretty much responsible for my collection almost doubling in the last year. Thanks, I think. LOL

Very nice bloom, Gena.

I don't know very much about Sweden, except that it's far north. But this plant and your other posts are beautifully grown. They are not just surviving, they look happy and vigorous.

Mauro! I think if Kim will continue to behave himself like he does (double his collection each year) we’ll be in trouble!

It's gorgeous!
