What kinda party?
Oh...
You mean the intermediate plant project? AKA the Laelia anceps project.
Probably not. Laelia anceps is fairly large and they get big fast. They're beautiful plants, but I want to save some space for the rarer stuff first (namely, Disas!).
Laelia superbiens is even larger than Laelia anceps and grows similar enough to it. Sometimes I have trouble figuring out what to do with it. For now, the L superbiens is good enough.
I understand that Oak Hill Gardens sells seedlings of L anceps for dirt cheap, but like I said, I'm thinking long term.
Not to mention, seedlings will take almost a decade or more to go into first bloom.
My L superbiens has been with me for nearly 5 yrs, and it's not close to being blooming size.
Good luck with your L. anceps. It's a beauty, and it's very hardy. Great for beginners, and not a big hassle for any level hobbyists!
Talk about hijack! I think I hijacked the project! Sorry people.
