Except for Coelogyne pandurata that I find really beautiful, I am not really Coelogyne guy... I mean they are nice, but I don't fall for them. Anyway, I am an orchid lover so when I was presented this lawrenceana I wanted to test my skills with this genus. Well, or the plant is easy (probably the case here ) or I'm getting skilled with Coelogynes .

Mauro,
Now are you starting to like coelogynes a bit more??

I might say so, Shirley ! I am looking for Coelogyne pandurata now, but the true species. That one I like very much. I bought one two years ago, but when the flowers appeared it ended up being Coelogyne Burfordiense, a primary hybrid of C. pandurata with C. asperata, if memory serves me well. You can imagine how happy I was when discovered this small seller 'mistake'!
Summer:
Day temps: min. 75ºF, max. 93ºF
Night: 68ºF
Winter:
Day temps: min. 59ºF, max. 75ºF
Night: 46ºF
Spring and fall are transitional between these. Consider that these are average temps for each situation.
Mauro,
Coel. lawrenceana isn't the easiest Coel. to grow; I think you are becoming skilled with these 'chids! You can find Coel. pandurata in the "Orquidário 4 Estações" (I didn't bought mine there, but I guess they are reliable)
