Coelogyne viscosa (graminifolia)
Only two flowers, but considering the weather (cold and wet) I'm glad that the buds didn't rotting!

Hi Mauro!
Occording to IOSPE it's a "cool to hot" (?) growing Coel, but in opinion the great majority of Coels do love mild temps.
PS: Thank you for Sandra Takebayashi indication; she is a very kind person! My seed pod has 7 months, and I'll send it to Sandra soon! (a beautiful coerulea Lc - I guess!). Later I'll have a BIG problem - where to grow the deflasked seedlings!

Thats an elegant coelogyne.
I also have this one. It tolerates hot weather and does well in lowlands. But in winter, cold and dry is suggested.

Hi Pheli!
I did looked at your viscosa, nice plant! Usualy the winter is mild and dry here, but this year the temps dropped a lot some days, and the weather is amazingly wet! Unfortunately almost all my orchids aren't under a plastic sheeting or some kind of covering, only under sun protection!

Frederico, we also had an unexpected cold winter this year and the cold front caused damage to my garden plants and orchids. It is summer here and the weather seems hotter and hotter recently. The temperature is up to 35℃ these days and even at night, it is 28℃ around. Maybe, the weather is changing all over the world.
