Wow, nice flowering! What are you using for media in the basket?

I only have a some large chunks of cork (1"-2") and large pieces of tree fern fiber (2") in the basket. As you can see the orchid likes to climb out of the basket just like most walkeriana hybrids do. C. walkeriana grows on limestone cliffs, so this year I started giving it a calcium/magnesium supplement called Magical at one teaspoon per gallon of water every two weeks in between fertilizings. It seems to have worked because this year I have 18 flowers and 4 buds while in the past I've only had 6 or 8 flowers each year.

Great-looking plant and flowers. And such a wonderful hybrid too, without requiring near the amount of fuss that C. walkeriana requires (for me). Congratulations on the wonderful blooming.
