Yes I think you are right Tetoun
It should be cernua var mineira though it was marked cernua var minerva.

I missed this thread, your plant is huge!! And such nice blooms. How long have you had it for it to have gotten that large?

Hi Camille

Unfortunate I have not kept an information arcive of all my plants so I do not remember all the plants background.
But I have had this plant for 5-6 years and the mount has been extended 2 times, a third time is needed now and I will put it on a larger Epiweb sheet.
The plant had numerous leads and had 6-9 bulbs when a bought it.

It's nice to see that they can get to a nice size in cultivation. They are so small when purchased, and seem to grow so slowly. But yours seems quite vigorous.
