Love the Phrag. hybrids, but still like the species best and this is one of my favorites. I think I've posted pictures of this plant before, but here it is again. Grown in sphagnum and sits in a dish of water and is kept under fluorescent lights when not in bloom.

Thanks, Rosie, Ross and Nick. I've run out of wild orchids so am back to the cultivated flowers.

Outstanding, Ron. I agree that there is a simple elegance in a pure species that is hard to beat.
