I have quite a few of these but this one has very nice markings. They grow cold and tolerate some heat as well. I quite like it, it's not really open yet but I am going to Thailand tomorrow for a holiday so I had to take the photo today......great potential. I got this one for $10.

Definitely a great looker! I have the parents of this plant and had a pod but it matured and split.. Next time I plan on doing a better job. Probably won't live to see it flower but I'm going to try anyway.
The flowers on my plants are quite dark so I'm hoping for a cross with dark flowers.....

I've got one in bud. But I paid a lot more than $10!

Gorgeous!
I very nearly got one last month, but I read that it's one of those plants best bought in bloom since the quality of the coloring varies widely and the yellow may be nearly absent in some. Yours is very very nice!

Beautiful I have both parents and the hybrid, I love them so much... but I wish my would get a move on and flower! Shame I can't offer to fly around the world and plant-sit!
