A knock-out beauty!
One of my all-time favs!

Wow!

Hey guys, I'm new to the orchid world and I just ordered a Amizonica. Any tips on how to care for it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Medium filtered light, fertilizer and water twice a week during the summer (20-20-20)....once a week during the winter (10-30-20).

Yours is so pretty, such a beautiful color. Mine is in bud now. It's a very faithful bloomer but I need to repot mine again.

It's gorgeous. This one's been on my wish list for a while now.

I just noticed your post. What a great bloomer this hybrid is. And the lips on mine seem to be getting bigger and darker with every bloom.

Jasen is right on this (he must be, it's exactly what I do).

You'll love yours, my amazonica almost never stops blooming. I find them to be pretty easy growers too. I'm also going to try to get an Amazing when I do some buying this spring.
