Psh. cochleata 'Lazaro' x Psh. cochleata 'SVO'
Hello all , I got this plant from Fred Clarke a few years ago. It is a nice plant, and is a reliable bloomer. Unfortunately, while it was outside in the summer, two pseudobulbs were partially eaten by a rodent! Also some leaf tips are brown and it probably should be repotted. It has four flowers and one bud. Hope you like it .

It's an abbreviation for the genus, the plant has been pulled out of the genus Encyclia, and given a new genus. I don't know what the full genus name is, so I use the abbreviation.

I found out, the name is Prosthechea cochleata.

Love this one. Four flowers at once is good going, mine usually only has one or two at a time.
