Default miltassia royal robe

what else does one look for when he enjoys both miltonia's and brassia's? a Miltassia!!!


got this one from the little greenhouse on the prairie. has about 20 to 30 bulbs in a 10" pot all with at least 1 new bulb shoot..will need a 12" pot..a total of 6 spikes so far and 1 double bloom ahead of the rest Ill get a pic of the whole plant for ye eyes bec I know you all like pics..The guy that sold this one to me I overheard him tell his assistant " we need to start cutting some of these plants".. was the best 26 bucks I spent this week. I could divide this one as its about to fall apart anyway its so huge, but I really love the big old established specimen look you get from them .I'm going to to leave it be for now until after its done blooming..then maybe give mom a bulb..I would find it easier to give her a kidney... no really
heh ...

Gorgeous flowers, that colour is fantastic. I love big specimen size plants as well (just don't have any yet), so I can understand you not wanting to split it.

I got one of these at Deep Cut Orchid Show at Dearborn Market in Holmdel, NJ in 2017. Colors vary with this hybrib. Mine is a lighter pink. Does anyone know the light requirements? I want to get one for my Mom who has Full sun veranda in Sarasota, FL

I would think full sun in Sarasota would be far too much for it. For a spot on a full-sun Florida veranda, consider a terete Vanda. You can find them at RF Orchids and Motes Orchids in Homestead.

You can see how other OB members grow Miltassia Royal Robe here. Notice even in New York they keep it back from the window:
