It's a fantastic little guy! I have a standard and a gigantea. Shannen (shakkai) has the most stunning standard I've ever seen! Do a search here on OB for it and take a look

Orchidwiz says "a large, up to 24" sympodial epiphyte or lithophyte

by the way, do you know Ionopsis utricularioides http://www.orchidspecies.com/orphotd...cularoides.jpg ? a great plant!!! I know it actually fom Venezuela at above the 2000 m level.. however, IOSPE says it can grow also at sea level... Unfortunatelly, there is only one vendor (that I could find) in Europe, and currently do not have many plants... you mainly get Ionopsis paniculata, which seems to be little sister of the already little utricularioides...
I know, I am bad... I just posted it to add a new one to your wish list, Sue!

I have seen plenty of Lycaste aromatica growing and blooming in 4 inch pots, in fact I've never seen one in anything larger that a 4 inch pot...

I'm thinking maybe we should just take a chance and add this one (Lycaste aromatica) to the list...have we found it in Canada yet?
