Default Laelia rubescens aurea

A nice miniature. It has 1" egg shaped pseudobulbs with four inch leaves. It does well for me in a 2 1/2" pot with half day of sun and lots of water. The spikes are about 16" long. A regular fall bloomer.

They're gorgeous. Do you give this any type of winter rest?

Very nice and rarely seen over here. The aurea variety is really stunning. Obviously very well grown, congrats!

Do you have a picture of the pseudobulbs as well? something that would show the size of the plant and the lenght of the spike? great show of flowers.
