thanks you

LC Jungle Elf is Laelia esalqueana x C. aclandiae so the plant is 75% C. aclandiae. The Laelia is where the flower shape and petal size comes from in its ancestry as the aclandiae has longer more narrow petals

The lip is aclandiae all the way and very deeply colored.

look how long its taken to get this mini catt to bloom again

almost 3 years and 3 growths later a bloom. Its started to grow from the back end now too. It is potted not mounted. They like lots of humidity and bright light. It is a very slow grower and doesn't put out many nubbins and rarely 2 a year you might see if it gets big enuff. A true mini. Will post pic when flower opens later.

.

This plant is not an easy one to get to work. Lots of patience.
