Thanks, Bud!
I was excited to see the flowers on this one again - the first time it bloomed, I was besides myself with how great the blooms were: good size, shape, and color!

Thanks, silken!
I hope you don't have a very long wait!

Thank you!

It's been pretty easy going for me. I try to water before media is completely dry, except in winter if overnight lows will be near freezing - then I will let it be slightly dry for a short period.

Very cool. I like the lip color. And it's such a nicely compact plant too.

That's a real beauty. Congrats on the rebloom.

Congratulations. Is that another sheath I see on the left cane?

Well I think I'm in love
