The blooms are waxy in texture. I have two plants. They are easy species to bloom and to grow.

It came as a blooming size plant last year and ever had blooms last year. Like some summer cattleyas, when the new growths strat to grow, the flower sheath also develops. |

Beautiful!! I love this species so much I have 2.
While it's not been my hardest to bloom...I can't put it in the easiest category. One of mine is a seedling so maybe it'll prove easier but my larger one tends to be bit stingy w/the blooms. Same growing conditions results in one year of blooming but the next nothing. ?? But when it does bloom...OH MY! - gorgeous!
Great job growing yours and thanks for sharing because it's not seen too often.
