Hi Camille. I think I have eight of them at present. Thanks for looking and commenting.

Can't get enough of this colour!
Lovely one Ron

Thanks, Gloria. If there were only two orchids I could grow this would be one of them.

very nice - you are keeping it cool enough so that the bloom opens wide - good growing!

mine never open that far nor do they get such rich color because I keep them too warm.

What are your daytime/nightime temps?

[ronaldhanko]

Winter days 65-70
Winter nights 55-65
Summer days 65-75
Summer nights 65-70

Should add that I am convinced cool temps have a great deal to do with color in reds and oranges.

I agree with that - colors are brighter with cooler temps in this cool-growing species.
