I bought it ten years ago seedling.
Two years ago I split it and a part planted it in sphagnum moss, the other part I mounted it. The one in the pot blooms two or three times per year, the other has not yet blossomed.
I grow it in the terrarium, the light is LED, RH (30-80) %. Temperature in summer (20-40) degrees Celsius in winter (15-24) degrees Celsius. Watering is done on any cattleya with reverse osmosis and fertilizer a total of ppm (30-60).

As far as I've read, it needs a continuous suply of water. Maybe that's why the one in moss is blooming while the mounted is not.
Thanks for the info.
