Phrag. Inca Fire

[Call_Me_Bob]

This is a seedling of Inca Fire, it's the second time it's bloomed. The first blooming was a little weird with the shape; I was hoping it would get better with age. The form is still not good, it's a small flower, and it didn't even open up the whole way this time. Kind of disappointing, definitely a runt of this cross. I grow this in a mix of fine fir bark, small perlite, and small charcoal; the pot sits in a dish of water so it's always nice and moist. This was a gift from Steve Male of Fishing Creek Orchids.

I like it! Nice color. Orchids often don't bloom well when they're young plants and do better with age. Good luck.
