Caularthron bicornutum
This time my plant is not blooming well because just when the buds were developing a cold wave hit the region blasting several and burning the tips of others. This is well known for the hollow pseudo bulbs having a small hole at the base allowing fire ants to get in make their nests inside. The plant gives shelter and the ants repay with protection. Two famous hybrids using this species is Caulaelia Snowflake, a primary using Laelia albida, and Iwanagaara Appleblossom.
