So cute ! Now I want one
Maybe I need to buy a green house before buying more orchids

No, I do not think you need a greenhouse. This plant is grown indoors, in my brightest and warmest room. This is a small plant. The tallest leaf is eight inches and it is in a 3.5" net pot.

Here is a picture of it with my Odbrs Fangtastic Bob Henley.



Thanks Sonya and Leafmite.

Adorable flower. I love the color and form....it is slowly becoming a specimen.

That is a cute little flower. I certainly appreciate the compact size of it, got a bunch of minis myself but only seen two bloom so far (well three if you count the one in bud). Thanks for sharing while I wait.

Love the flower, hadn't heard of this orchid. Also, like the indoor set up!! Do you use lights or just the window?

[MattWoelfsen]

Thanks LovePhals. This is my breakfast room. It faces east, so all of my plants behind these two on the table are Phalenopsis. I temporarily had this Cattleya here so I can enjoy its flower. I have returned it to its home--in a southern exposure window shelf where it gets warmth, bright light, and a little more humidity.

What a delicate flower and color! Congrats!
