Ron, that is a beauty. One of the things I like about the OB, is seeing pictures of orchids genus' that I've never even heard of. What an education I am getting

Glad to be of help, Carrie:-)

I've never heard of that one, but I REALLY like it. I am very fond of the clear and lighter yellow blooms. Is it hard to grow in a regular home atmosphere?

Hi,
It isn't the easiest plant to grow in a home environment. It likes cooler temperatures and good humidity, so it would probably do best if you have a window in an unheated room that doesn't get too hot in the summer.
