Thanks...

I generally tweak the blacks a little so everything else looks great.

The lens is also slightly (very slightly not dangerous) radioactive with Lanthanum which supposedly helps the contrast.

the ones I kill usually bloom in August. We had a very early spring. They have been outside since early-mid march.

Nice, Zod, I love this species! I definitely get the waxy notes in the fragrance but to me it also smells pleasantly of tangerine and peach. Unfortunately I killed mine last year but definitely high on my list to re-acquire someday.

What great color. I have a Den. lanyaiae that appears to have a bud. What kind of potting mix are you using? I have heard that the culture for Den. lanyaiae and unicum are similar and my plant is potted in sphagnum moss which I don't like. I don't want to repot until after flowering however.
